I deserted my Omni V for my K2/100 and never regret it, not to say the Omni V
was a bad rig, it wasn't. The K2 is like using a 44 magnum compared to a 38
special....hi

The Omni II is a tremendous rig. It offers the performance of rigs
that are literally three times the price. It set the standard to
which these mega-rigs aspire to.

An Omni II is only twice the price of a fully decked out K2/100. For
that price you have two functional receivers, 100% duty cycle
transmit, and a bunch of other features.
I'd say it's worth the price, if you can afford it. As for Price /
Performance, the K2/100 wins, hands down.
