Thanks Yuri for the clarification. I think I finally
have it straight (duh).
Could someone confirm my understanding that:
1. The capability of cascading two 9Mhz if filters was
missing in the original Omni 6, but was added in the
option 3 upgrade to the Omni 6
2. An Omni 6 opt 3 has the full filter holding
capacity of the Omni 6 plus.
Thanks & 73,
