It seems I have heard about quite a few uneplained final failures in
Icom radios from IC-751 and beyond.
Where U doing anything unusual that could cause final failure?
Check output on all bands. On my 756 Pro lll recently had close to full
output on some bands and hardly any on others. Finals had to be
replaced. My finals were damaged when I was using a beverage antenna
connected to the ant aux socket. It seems ICOM does not switch off that
connector when in transmit mode and this allows high voltages or
currents to get into circuitry that may cause damages to components on
the PA board.
Good luck. Hope it is not ur finals.
