[Kenwood] TM241A Extended Receive Question

I have no idea of what buttons you may have pressed or in what 
order.  Though, as I recall, that radio (I had three) enjoyed a few 
undocumented features.

I assume you (or a previous owner) have performed a modification to extend 
the frequency range.  With this in mind, you may be looking at a hard reset 
to restore the wide-band capability.

If this doesn't solve the problem, you might look closely at the band 
diodes in the event one failed or is the victim of a cold-solder joint.

Good luck.
