[1000mp] wierd problem

[Art Searle W2NRA]

One irrelevant point to my rig working fine is that I run it on the internal
supply on a 220V line (simply because I'm running out of 110 lines).

I have not noticed it on mine, but my routine for getting ready to  
operate my station may be a factor.  I usually turn on all the power  
supplies first, then go around turning on computer monitors, other  
gear, and adjusting whatever matching network i'm going to use, then I  
turn on my mk v.   maybe having the p.s. on for a few minutes before  
turning on the rig makes a difference?   display seems to come on right  
away.  but mine is a little over 2 years old.   by the way, if the p.s.  
fails and can't be repaired, (and I don't know what's involved in  
getting a yaesu replacement or what it costs) separate 13.8 and 28 v.  
supplies can be purchased from Astron.   I can't remember if they are  
switching or linear but I think this is a less expensive option.   of  
course you will have two p.s. to turn on but that's a minor  
inconvenience I could live with.
