[TenTec] OMNI 6

[ROLAND HOWELL]

Good Morning Bob, even if it is a cold one over here across the pond.
Hope you and yours are staying clear of the pandemic.
Thanks for your advice, just found out that there is NO case with it 
either, so i am going to give it a miss.
stay well and safe

As a rule, it is worth more in parts than a working radio. Frankly, I 
wouldn't invest any time into repairs, even if it was given to me FOC.

Hi,
That sounds too hard for me.
It is far from being complete, and these days getting parts has become 
too
difficult as most radio parts from ham estates go straight to the tip.
If there was a healthy, reasonable market of second hand parts I would 
go
for it. In your case I would focus into fixing the Paragons or asking 
here
for a complete, tech special Omni VI.

Good Evening gents
looking at getting an incomplete OMNI 6 to play with.
it requires the following pcb's:
81594 9mHz mixer board
81600 Pass Band Tuning board
81611 PA complete
Just waiting on the seller to tell me if the top and bottom cases are 
with
it.
My question to you gents is this, is anybody parting out that radio and
have those boards for sale or disposal.
Then once the radio is assembled will it work or will it require further
work.
What is the radio worth once all sorted, at the moments it is at £120.
Its just for something to keep grey cell active during my retirement, i 
am
a sucker for TT kit having 3 x paragons ( only 2 working) Argosy2 x 2, a
509 Argonaut and finally 2 x Omni 'D's) ahh nearly forgot a 1254 Rx.
So some thoughts from you gents please, worth doing or not!
Stay well and healthy
