Ron: I am going from memory so might not be exactly right. I was reading from
the Wiki site earlier and they were saying the TCXO was found on the later VI+
units. The oven is susposed to me more stable over the long run.
The TCXO units might be in an earlier rig since they were available in the board
swap that TenTec used to do.
My VI+ has the oven but I have spare board that has the TCXO.
Hope this helps and try the wiki for the exact details.

Subject: [TenTec] Omni VI+ TXCO
Earlier today, a friend of mine (a US ham currently overseas, but due to
return in a few months) asked me this question about the Omni VI+ :
"Omni VI+, was the TXCO a standard option or aftermarket? From my research I
have found that the Omni VI stared with a TXCO and then moved to a xtal oven
but that due to better longevity and stability the + went back to the TXCO.
However, what I can not find is if they were optional or standard."
Anyone know the answer?
(FWIW, at least at the time I checked this morning, the TenTec Wiki appeared
to be down, never had a chance to look further, and I have to spend the rest
of the night working on my club newsletter!)
Thanks!
