Hi Charles,
The radio is getting power, the meter pilot lamp, LSB and 2.4 LEDs are
lighted as well as VFO A and TIME. There is audio output and no
frequency or time/date dipslay and no response to any button or the
tuning knob. I did not get inside the power supply, I just had it turned
off for a while.
