I have for sale a Kenwood TS2000 HF/VHF/UHF all mode radio, which does 100 watts on HF, 6, and 2m, and 50 watts on 70cm. It also will do full duplex for satellite operation. Has a AM/FM subreceiver

I have a Westmountain Radio Rigblaster Plus soundcard interface to do digital modes from your computer with your rig.? Great for FT8/FT4, PSK31, and other soundcard modes.? It comes with the the

I don't think so because in the fault condition SEND and AT TUNE don't work either. -- Mike G8GYW

Well, I replaced the diodes and it didn't make any difference...Time to make some dinner...73...Jordan...

Mike, if you can't provoke the symptom by probing around the connector and it's leads, and you can't produce the problem by prodding the board itself, I'd be taking a good long look at the connector

Ooops...it should read "...which formed part of the BCB attenuator..." 73...Jordan...

Hi group.. I have a 450S which has served me very well for ~30 years now. Long ago, I jumpered the resistors which formed part of the BCB, effectively removing the attenuator. It was fine for years

Thanks Gary, I will try that next time it fails. -- Mike G8GYW

No the cable wasn't plugged into anything else. When the fault is present none of the PTT functions works (MIC, ACC2, SEND, AT TUNE). I presume it's a standard 13 pin DIN socket so the cable plug

P.S....that cable should plug in quite easily...are you sure it has the right pin spacing..?

Mike, is that cable plugged into another device..? If not, there is a PTT connection from the ACC2 connection for that cable. What happens if you ground the PTT connection...? I've never seen a

Jordan, it was a DIN cable with plugs at both ends. I did check that there were no shorts between the pins. The cable appears to be of good quality but the plug required a lot of effort to mate with

Is there anything connected to the ACC2 cable, or is it just the plug...? Jordan VE6ZT

After allowing radio to warm up (let sit for 15 minutes turned on), take a #2 type pencil (with a new eraser), and press down on every component on the board (or boards), while the radio is in the

I managed to get the fault to return by inserting a plug into the ACC2 socket, which was a tight fit and required a lot of effort. When I removed the DIN cable normal operation returned. Something on

Sam I checked that the relay and PCB connectors were secure but the only screws I disturbed were those on the top shield. I left the radio on for several hours and tested it in TX periodically and it

Mike, Did you torque any screws on the board containing the Rx/Tx relay, or any metal shield covering portions of the circuitry? Sometimes these kinds of issues are caused by hairline fractures on a

Ok Mike...No problem...have fun with the rig and feel free to ask questions should you have any....73...Jordan VE6ZT

Thanks Jordan. All the board screws were tight and I couldn't see or feel any loose connectors but if/when it fails again I will follow your advice. This radio is immaculate and shows no signs of
