The C and the D look just alike and I have an Omni VI and I still have a Corsair 2.The only rice box I have is the Yaesu FT990 and I had a TS-850 Kenwood and none of those radios are as quiet on 40m and 80m as the Tentecs that are crystal mixed.It has to be a real quiet day to even hear those bands when there are static crashes.I used a 75m DC loop on my Omni D and that thing was as quiet as a church mouse.
Anyway,I worked SSB a total of three times last year..I only use my vintage stations running 40m AM and 75m AM phone and CW.I just rebuilt the BC610E which was a year long project and I should have her back up in a few weeks. Aren't you running a low pass filter on the transmitter? You can also get a high pass filter to put on your internet connection.
