Thanks to all for the help. It was too simple for me to think of doing a
search on the net.(DUH!)
I for one am quite pleased with my Omni 6+, and will have it for awhile. My
wish as stated previously a long time ago is to wait for Tentec to come out
with the next generation rig that will outperform AND out feature the
IC-7800.
Call it the Omega if you will, Hi Hi. But seriously, the next void that
really
needs filled is what AC5E and others suggest, a Pure DX rig without all the
extras for the contesters, but same level Orion performance in a single
reciever.
(and slightly lower pricetag) 73.
I have to laugh, because when we were doing the Omni-VI Plus (whose close-in
receiver performance, while not measured by the ARRL Lab, is comparable to
the 20 kHz spacing numbers) - we always got comments like "I didn't buy an
Omni-VI Plus, because it doesn't have a subreceiver, a this, a that, it
doesn't
have this thing....but I hear the receiver is great. And for contesting, I
really
need to have a....which the Omni-VI doesn't have. Boy, that receiver sure is
something, though....."
No plans for an "Orion Lite" transceiver.
