Hi Paul

Thanks for the info - much appreciated.  I only tried it out last night for 
the first time but the Omni C works very well on 160m - the filtering isn't 
as good as the usual FT1000, but signals on it are clearer and less muddy 
than on the latter - and it also seems more immune to electrical noise!

Needless to say, I am really pleased with it!

Conditions on 160 are still pretty poor, but hopefully they will improve in 
the next few weeks and we can make a QSO.
