[1000mp] RS 232 Problem

[Jim Dawson]

I believe the chip is a surface mount chip and not able to be used with a socket. A friend of
mine lost his and the replacement he got from Yaesu was surface mount.

  You may have a blown rs232 chip. It has been known to happen from time to 
  time due to RFI getting in on the data cable. Last time I dug into this for 
  someone, I suggested that when installing a replacement, use a IC socket to 
  make the next change out easier ... hi hi  Have not had that happen here, 
  yet, but many have reported it.
