I've seen this happen to all bands and it is some FETS in the antenna 
tuner that get blown by ESD. Blowing dust is enough to blow these FETs 
on these Icoms. Never leave ant hooked to one of these rigs in a storm 
of any type and there is very poor protection of the RX.
    Been there done that and paid the repair bill too!
