[Kenwood] PL1 and PL2 for TS-870

[Reed Park]

Hi Group

Friend of mine has a TS-870 that popped a bulb in the RF unit. It
is in series with the antenna connector and seems to have done what
it was designed to do. It opened in the presence of a large RF field.
He is wondering what type of bulb it is, and where to get a
replacement. For now, he has swapped PL2 in the aux. antenna input
with the bad PL1 in the main input to get the radio operational.
