Hello all,
I wonder if any of you had your display unit for your Kenwood TM-G707 2/440 transceiver go blank and reboot even while the radio operates just fine.
If I move the wire with respect to the control head in a certain position this happens.
Is this just a case of dirty contacts between the little cable adapter and the control head or have any of you seen the wire in the cable actually break?

Early one November morning an amateur radio operator was patiently waiting for morning to break in his tree stand in Rappahannock County, Virginia to get in another chance at a deer. Then tragedy. The tree stand broke sending him down to the ground and, we are not sure how, onto a board with nails leaving him near motionless with six nails in his back.

A ham on the local Sunday Night Tech Net reported a technique that improved the reception of CW measurably.
He has a Kenwood TS-2000 transceiver. As time went by he used various adjustments while listening to CW. He was never quite satisfied with the noise levels that came in along with the desire CW signals. Variables adjusted include the RF Gain and AGC response time.

A viewer has a problem powering two radios from one power supply.
This situation is quite likely very common among amateur radio operators who keep a simple shack set up with one large power supply feeding multiple loads.
