I was told by the factory there is no difference between a 563 with Option 3 and a 564, so I don't believe it is misleading at all to call a 563 with Option 3 a VI Plus, but I'm just going on what th

At present I own two of one and one of the other. Being curious I gave them a fairly close twice over. The only difference I can find is the decal on the front panel. So if I were in the market for a

Yes, isn't the CW transmit offset set differently (different crystals in the BFO) in the "real" 6+ ? I also understand that the product detector circuit in the 6 was improved at some point (second or

Hi Bob. Good point, the 563 with option 3 does not say PLUS on the front panel, so I guess the silkscreen is the difference. N2OJQ Ernie Stedman 130 Buckthorn Court Roswell GA 30076 Sign up for PAYPA

Ron; The term has become v-e-r-y misused for the Option upgrade models. They are still a 563 with factory ___ upgrades. And a Paragon is just that; not a Paragon 1 while we are on the same topic! :-)

Do you feel it is ethical for someone to advertise a 563 with upgrades as "Omni VI+" when they try to sell it? This is exactly what some hams are doing, whether intentional or not. It is still a Mode

Yes, but the crystals are the same only the alternate sideband crystal is used. This results in less of a required frequency shift in the CW transmit offset. I had modified my Omni Six this way befo

No, that was not the question Paul; "Omni VI + FS" have been listed both here and other Swap groups; it takes a direct e-mail to learn it was a 563 with factory upgrades to ??. This is misleading and

For my 2 cents - the difference between a 563 and a 564 (VI and VI+) is not only some construction practices, and possible circuit improvements, but more importantely it gives a rough indication of t

The term is being used loosely in my opinion. There was enough of a difference for Ten-Tec to feel the need to roll the part number on the radio from 563 to 564. Electrically they are just about the
