- 10-yr old OMNI V.

Severe RF leakage.  Shuts down xmt. above 40 watts or so, and you can hear
it on cw signal, according to one listener report.

- SWR < 1.5:1 on couple diff ant's
- Changed external coax cables.
- Opened rig - RF enclosure was loosely secured to chassis (two missing
screws), but no change after replacing screws and tightening heat sink (no
surprise).

Any ideas?? Back to Ten-tec??
