[Icom] 765 TR relay

[Bruce D. McLaughlin]

Well, I think my faithful 765 may be developing arthritis of the TR
relay.  After a few minutes, it sometimes loses sensitivity on receive.
If I send a dot or dit, the sensitivity immediately comes back.
Sometimes it remains OK for the rest of the session and sometimes I have
to dit again once or twice.  Does that sound like TR relay trouble?

 

If it is trouble with the TR relay, how much of a problem is it to
replace.  I don't have a service manual unfortunately so I am trying to
make a preliminary assessment as to whether this is something I could
reasonably do myself.
