[ICOM] IC-2KL 80M problem

[Paul Beringer]

I've had a recurring problem with 80M on RTTY with my 2KL. I love this
little guy  and it fits in well for my 2nd radio amp. But the 80M bandpass
section has been overheated one too many times and it's time to finally
replace the coils and caps. (it had been overheated prior to my purchase and
I didn't find out about it until later)  Kuni W7JV has helped me find
replacement part numbers and Icom has them all except for two  680pf 1kv
caps. The parts guy said he'd call the home company and see if they have
them or maybe the part number has changed. Otherwise, I'll need to find a
suitable replacement. Wish me luck.
