Actually, I believe the OM-3Ti has more in common with the OM-4Ti than
the OM-3. The 3Ti's circuit is based on the last version (CE version)
of the 4Ti circuit. The OM-3 used a much older circuit design. At least
that's what I gather from reading through the 3Ti service manual. I'm
not about to open up my 3Ti to find out for sure :-)
