TS-450S loss of receive gain

Jordan All Messages By This Member #109 Hi group... My 30+ years old TS-450 has developed a moderate loss of gain roughly a few minutes after I turn it on, which I noticed some time back. I was using it to monitor the output of my signal generator for hum, and I may have hit the 450 with a couple of volts of RF... Where is it best to start looking, or is this not an uncommon issue...?? Thanks for your advice... 73...Jordan VE6ZT
