Hi Rick...you stateside yet? Gotta cure fer the drifties...my old Omni 6
plus did a bit of that so pulled the speaker and installed a little pc fan
to pull in cool outside air that is wired in series with one across the
final brick heat sink.
Having a lot of fun setting up my Omni 7! Now if only could get the darn
ethernet port to work....

Subject: [TenTec] Omni VI+ drifting frequency
I have an Omni VI+ opt. 3 which was shipped to me via UPS.
The rattle inside the rig turned out to be the plastic cap of the TCO,
which
apparently came lose in shipping.
I pushed it back on.
I did not glue it.
When using the rig, it drifts significantly, to the extent that I need to
adjust the VFO about once per minute.
It seems to be drifting, not jumping.
Any suggestions?
Do I need to glue the cover to the TCO on to the unit?
Thanks.
73
Rick
