Dennis -
I bought a used Omni VI+ (option 3) off this list. The question I
should have asked was, "Has the crystal oven been replaced?" It was bad
and the guy wouldn't take the rig back. The radio ended up taking a
trip to Ten Tec to figure out what was wrong and replace the oven with a
TCXO. Crystal ovens are no longer available. Later Omni VI+ came with
the TCXO standard.
As long as you get a good enough price to cover a trip back to Ten Tec
(I didn't) you'll be fine. The repair and checkout cost under $200.
Ten Tec repair prices are very reasonable.
