I am trying to understand a problem with my newly purchased OMNI C. It was operating fine according to the person who sold it to me (and I believe him!). Upon arrival it seems that the PTO has no out

Dear Joe This sounds encouraging but can you give me a bit more detail? The OMNI schematic doesn't indicate an E reference. The PTO block only has a few outputs (VFO out, VFO shift and OT). None of t

Dear Joe That's unfortunately right. The OMNI PTO circuitry does not have an Enable line. The Corsair does. Any other wisdom? Regards Mike K1PEV ** On 2/20/12 9:22 AM, "Joe" <joe@n4yg.com> wrote:

Dear Scott R23 is the level adjust pot on the Oscillator-mixer board. I think that's the one you are referring to. The manual only makes a passing reference to it when describing setting the balance

Dear Joe I'll look into the external VFO question. I have the manuals for both the 243 and the 263 so that should tell me something. Also I son't see that there is a jumper needed on the accessories

Dear Gary I will look into the issue of a missing accessories socket jumper. As you say there is one on the Corsair and the Corsair manual refers to it. There is no such reference that I can see in t

Dear Gary As I indicated in my previous email to you, I looked in the manual in Section 2-1, accessories socket and there is no mention of the jumper either there or on the schematic block diagram. I

Dear Joe I hope you and Gary are right. I'll give Ten Tec a call on this tomorrow. As I said to Gary there is no reference to the accessories jumper in the Omni C manual. There are at least two refer

Dear Joe Yes, there is an accessories socket but there is no mention in the manual of a jumper that needs to be in place between pins on the socket for the Omni. There is a mention of this need in th

Dear Scott I will bring home some test equipment from the university where I teach. That should help give me some valuable info. I'll keep plugging! I owned a Triton IV for 30+ years and am now "upgr
