Icom 720A

Post by rothackerben8 »

G'day everyone,

Just looking for a bit of advice on an Icom 720A (The one with the rotary relay :? ). I have had a bit of trouble with it cutting out occasionally when transmitting. I have a had a few reports from other stations of this. The main clue to this is that when you stop transmitting it is like the ATT is turned on - you cant hear anything, except for very strong stations. I have a feeling there may be a stuck relay somewhere in the unit. Anyone had the same problem? or have any suggestions?

Cheers
