The Ten Tec Omni series, from the A to the VI+, are/were not upconverting - their first IF is/was 9 MHz. Same for the original Argosy and the Corsair I and II. The Delta used a 6.3 MHz first IF. In fact, upconversion to VHF is rarely used in TT rigs (the Paragon is one exception). 73 de Jim, N2EY _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
