[TenTec] Omni VI filters

Stan....my Omni VI Plus has the same action as yours. When I hit the 1.8 button, signal narrows, and gain jumps noticeably. I've actually come to like it. I have hearing loss, and on past rigs, narrow filters never helped me copy weak SSB signal. This one does at times. Different strokes for different folks. Regards, Greg,  KC8HXO

 Hi everyone,
 
 After adjusting the BFO and TCXO and
 using the Omni VI for SSB and 
 digital modes for a little over a week
 now, I kind of like the new to me 
 rig.  I noticed a +2 or so S unit
 change when switching from the 2.4 Kc 
 filter to the 1.8 Kc filter.  It's
 like there is less loss or more gain 
 when switching to the 1.8 Kc
 filter.  I wouldn't think that would be 
 "normal"  Switching to the .5 Kc
 filter doesn't do that. S meter reading 
 is the same as the 2.4 Kc filter. 
 Anyone seen this before?
