[ICOM] 756 Pro Display Problem

[Phil Krichbaum]

This is a common 756PRO problem and Icom ran out of replacement screens 
years ago.There is someone in the Netherlands that has  a fix for the 
problem but maybe a bit expensive but the rig is fairly worthless 
without a working display!

Other than that it still seems to function.I am currently in Thailand in a high humidity environment so possibly have an oxidation issue with a connector? Any ideas ? Peter,NO2R / XU7ACY / HS0ZKX
