"He tweaked everything he
could on his radio to peak the signal as best as he could, but the MP
was
clearly much better.  Best results were obtained with the Omni VI+
when
using the 250-Hz filter and the NR button turned on."

Your experience agrees with mine.  I did some bench and on-the-air
tests of an Omni VI a few months ago and had a similar experience.  I
also found that the skirts on the 250 Hz filter were very wide.  My Mk
V, with dual 250 Hz filters, easily out-classed it during contests and
when the bands were busy.
