Hi Pasquale
I've spoken to the owner and he will clean the area around the coil and then take photos
We both have the flu and he'll do it as soon as hr feels better
Thank you very much for all your help and any other we can get
We would still like to find a replacement PA board if possible
Many thanks, 73, Reg

Hi
the situation is very hard !
On solder side I think there is an opportunity but I have no
idea with the damage in other side !
You should to clean the other side well and to do some other
photos to understand if there is a space to fix ! If the area is
full of SMDs component, it's very hard to fix, the situation is
very very difficult.
Please, if you can of course, try to do other photos of other
side (side with coil) ; before clean well . Thanks

Hi Reg
so you are fault in VHF section, I'm studying the
schematics !
Please, put here a photo with the burnt area so we can
support you with any idea to fix the PCB. In the past I
fixed some PCBs with burnt, often it's no possibile but
sometimes can you do it.

Hi Paul
Just thinking, I would even consider a faulty board as
long as its not burnt up. Mine burnt at the junction of
Q501 and L531. There was a dry joint on L531 and it burnt
a hole in the board. I would be able to get a working
board out of the two of them. Just hoping
Many thanks, Reg
