[TenTec] Omni VI v FT102 receive

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

And how did you determine the difference in receiver sensitivity?

The specified sensitivity for the FT-102 is 0.25 uV preamp on, 1.0 uV 
preamp off.  The Omni VI sensitivity is 0.16 uV.   I would say if you 
find the FT-102 better than the Omni VI then there is something wrong 
with the Omni VI.   Also the noise floor for the FT-102 is stated as 
-103 dBm and for the Omni VI as -133 dBm. The Omni VI is considerably 
quieter than the FT-102.
