I finally bit the bullet and bought an Omni 6+ , a radio I've long coveted,
from a list member. I've had one friend tell me I should get rid of it (it's
not even here yet) and buy a TS 570 which he swears is the most dependable
radio ever. He says I'll just be sending the Omni 6 back to Tennessee all
the time. Another guy told me he has a 6+ but likes his K2/100 better. I
have a K2/100 and like it fine but its tiny and I want a full size radio to
replace my beloved Omni V. At this point I feel a little demoralized.
My questions to the list are: do I use a standard modem cable to connect
to my computer or do I need a null version? Also...I was thinking of getting
the roofing filter (600 hz) from Inrad. What is the opinion of those? I'm
primarily a CW guy and have gotten interested in contesting in the last few
months. Also any tips or suggestions for other things I might do would be
much appreciated. Thanks!
