[Yaesu] FT100D Problem

[Gregory Andracke]

tnx bob, i didn't remove the wire, it got separated
when folding the board.  as mentioned in my post, it
wasn't a problem, BUT when I encountered the WFM
issue, I thought it might be related and that's when i
got into the radio and i guess, got into trouble.  did
the cpu reset, BUT didn't disconnect power etc. as you
suggest, will attempt that and see what happens.

thanks for taking the time to answer.
