[Kenwood] Smoking TS850S/AT

[Troy - VK2HXY]

Problem with TS850.  I was tuning an antenna on 80M and heard a bang =
from the rear of the radio.  As soon as the bang was heard an amount of =
smoke was emitted from the rear of the radio.  I was tuning up with 100W =
on CW.  Probably went too long (trust me to think that now!)

I immediately ran a few checks.  Radio seems to TX to 100W OK, seems to =
RX as it used to.  What could this bang and smoke be from?

Covers have not been removed as yet.  Wanted to get an idea from the =
experts as it were.

Radio is a TS850 with DSP100.

Regards
