Thanks everyone. I do apologize for taking so long on this but it is working
now and I LOVE
how it operates in AUTO. I had somehow LOST the enabling of my 500 Hz filter. I
swear I set
it and it got unset. Maybe I didn't save right earlier. No idea.
In any event iot works FB now, and I am making contacts despite the HORRIBLE
band
conditions this time of year in Florida. Amateur radio is almost a "NO GO" here
in the
summer from about June through September and all signals will be weak until the
fall.
Meanwhile I am working on antennas, setting up the station etc.
I want to thank everyone especially thank Bob, K4TAX for the help as I muddled
through this.
I am liking the OMNI VII more and more every day!
The luxury of the four A-B-C-D- VFOs is splendid.
