I have experienced the same problem one time with my
OMNI C. The radio operates normally except for the
display, so it's not the PTO jumper or the PTO itself.
It has not happened again but when it does I expect
reseating the connectors would be the first course of
action - great suggestion!

If the PTO signal is not getting to the counter, this
will be the display
problem. Here's what I would check:
1. On rear panel, there is a jumper for the external
VFO. It is two phono
jacks with a jumper installed. make sure that jumper
is making good contact
by removing and reinstalling it. If you are using the
external VFO, remove
it and jumper those two phono sockets to see if that
cures the fault.
2. The old rigs can have trouble with oxides on
connectors. Remove circuit
boards one by one and reinstall them. This cleans the
contacts for another
25 years.
If this doesn't work, please ask again, Gustavo.
