Before doing anything drastic, I'd open it up, take off the shield, and
reseat all of the boards including the digital board.  See if it's
simply a contact problem.

Subject: [Drake] TR-7 Problem

I've been enjoying my "new" TR-7 for the last three months.  However,
this morning while having a QSO on 75 the digital display went blank and
now it won't transmit or receive.  My suspicion is the power supply
board in the transceiver, since the FA-7 fan still works and the meter
and analog dial lights are still working.

If this helps, the TR-7 did the same thing a few days ago, but only for
a split second.  I suspected then I was going to have problems.  

Since I have had little experience with the TR-7, I thought some of you
on the list might have some ideas as to where I should start looking. 
All of my service experience has previously been on tube rigs.

Thanks,
