Absolutely correct. Its not worth the trouble and
speaking from personal experience you will definitely
get an OO letter in the mail. So forget 17 meters
there is nothing you can do to prevent being in
violation.

<DIV>The Omni-D has internal frequencies which mix to
produce spurious emissions
when the rig is used on 17 meters. Ten-Tec techs
told me the only cure for
this was to get another rig for that band. They
changed the mixing scheme
in the Corsair/Delta 580 era to obviate this
problem. My suggestion is
that you forego your attempt to use that Omni-D on 17
meters.</DIV>

[TenTec] Omni D adding 17 meter
band</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I just bought an
Omni D that is cosmetically
good and works extremely well. My question is,
what is necessary to add
the 17 meter band to this transciever? It does
not mention any part
number for a kit to add bands to the aux. band
position. Is there a kit
still available from Tentec or is this something
that will require scrounging
to find it? Thanks for any help that may be
forthcoming. Please
email me directly with any suggestions or
opinions. Mike -
