RECENTLY GOT A OMNI C FROM THE FACTORY WHICH I LIKE VERY MUCH HOWEVER ,ABOUT 2
WEEKS AGO THE SENSITIVTY DROPPED BY SEVERAL S UNITS AND IT HAD INTERMITTANT
BURSTS OF NOISE! I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE R F ATTENUATOR WAS NOT WORKING . A
CALL TO THE TECH. AT TENTEC ADVISED THAT PROBABLY THE PIN DIODES WERE BAD ON
THE R F ATTEN. BOARD ! HE WAS CORRECT . I REPLACED THEM (SUPPLIED BY TEN TEC)
AND ALL IS BACK TO NORMAL . ALSO LOW SENS. COULD BE BAD DIODES ON THE SWR-T/R
BOARD BUT MINE WERE OK HOPE THIS MITE BE HELPFUL TO SOME DE JERRY K9UT
