[ICOM] IC-275H Scan problem

[flearl at msn.com]

Happy New Year:
                       I have an Icom 275H that when first turned on and put in scan mode (FM) the rig will go right past busy channels. It is supposed to pause for a few seconds when a signal is present. Also, when the rig is cold you can put it in scan and get it rolling along and open the squelch and it will continue to scan with white noise like the squelch is open.  It eventually warms up and will stop on some busy channels but will go past others, no set pattern that I can find.  Opening the squelch once it is warm will stop the radio from scanning which is normal. TX and RX seem fine, the radio makes full power and can dig out weak signals. I don't really know where to go for service, sending it to Icom probably would be best unless someone could suggest an easy repair or has another service outlet they recommend. 
Thanks and 73
