[TenTec] Omvni VI Plus Diagrams

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

 Jim, you are welcome to imagine all you wish.


While I do not intend to get snarky, let me be very clear that in the case of THIS board, specifically the 9 MHz IF Filter board (and for that matter the 6.3 MHz IF Filter board, layout of which is also shown on the page in question):


- The instructions for installing the boards are word for word the same between the 563 Option 3 Installation sheet and the 564 manual page.  
 - The two diagrams, Figure 1 & Figure 2, are exactly the same.
 - The only practical difference is that the diagrams on the sheet are darker & easier to read than the ones printed in many of the manuals (mine included) and darker & clearer than the scanned manual that the old Ten Tec used to make available (and may still be available on the RKR site, I haven't looked)


While your comments are valid IN GENERAL, in the case of this SPECIFIC page and these SPECIFIC diagrams, they are NOT.  
 
OK?

I imagine that there are some identical boards etc since Opt. 3 reputedly makes the 563 electrically the same as the 564. It would be dangerous to rely on each part and board being exactly the same. "Women and children can afford to be careless, but not men." -- Vito Corleone
