<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FIXED IT. Thanks , ugly but serviceable, so
far</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now I need to think about why it happened. The
first time, KW said they replaced the TNC board but didn't mention any
zero-ohm resistors. Of course, when my laptop power connector failed
mechanically, HP said they replaced the keyboard.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The second time, I fixed the open
resistor. About 3 weeks ago, while operating both the radio and a laptop
off the car power system, the radio screen began to fade every time a Tx was
made. This, after working fine many times before. This may relate to
the parallel thread "APRS in a car"</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again and 7 3</FONT></DIV>

<DIV id=RTEContent>Remove all of the screws on both the top and bottom covers
and remove both covers. Disconnect the speaker wires from the main board
when removing the top cover. Remove the plastic front bezel by carefully
prying up each of the four plastic tabs that hold it in place and slide the
bezel forward. That will give you access to the circuit board at the
data jack.<BR><BR><B><I>Andy Gonzales <KG6RWO@comcast.net></I></B>
