[ICOM] Flickering display - 756 Pro

[John L Merrill]

Have you moved anything slightly? Changed any cables? Maybe your ground has
deteriorated a bit. Maybe a connector on a cable went bad, etc. Something
changed just enought to cause rf to get into the Pro.

A very reasonable thought.  But why would it suddenly start without any
changes in configuration after all this time?  I have toroids on the keying
line....still happens.  RF feedback was one of my suspicions....and it may
still be finding a way into it that I have yet to find.
