[1000mp] MP with Flashing VFO-A, no Rcve, no Xmit... And no joy!

Fri, 23 Apr 2004 08:59:10 -0400

It's probably a bit more serious than the typiical display problem. A friend
of mine recently had a new Mark 5 Field with the flashing vfo  A and no
sound. It turned out to be a PLL problem. Most likely that's what this is
also.

If you call yaesu i would bet they are going to tell you the same thing
