I had an Omni A series B and the warc mod added transmit for 10 mhz and 
transmit/receive for 24 mhz.  It did not include 18 mhz at all since the 
IF was 9 mhz.

10 mhz receive was already on the radio.  The mod contained band 
transmit pass filters for those bands and a crystal for 24 mhz.

It seems like I had to plug in a couple small circuit board and 1 or 2 chrystals. This wa over 20 years ago so I may well be all wet.    My omni was a omni D rec C that I bought in Feb 1982. It worked well on all the WARC bands. A few guys had problems on 17 meters with out of band spurious signals. Bat as far as I could determine I never had that problem.Ira   K4YMQ
