These are a piece of cake to fix. I've repaired several with these
symptoms. Most likely a bad solder joint inside the PLL can. Never found a
bad component. Pain to get to but fixable. Then re-align the PLL circuit.
Requires a good scope and a DVM. While you're in there, do a complete PLL
alignment.

EXCELLENT COSMETICALLY.
ELECTRICALLY IT IS LOCKING UP IN TRANSMIT AND GIVING THE "PLL OUT OF LOCK"
DISPLAY.
IT HAS THE OPTIONAL 500HZ. CW FILTER.
I AM THINKING SOMEONE HERE ON THE REFLECTOR IS MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN
MYSELF REGARDING DIGITAL TROUBLESHOOTING.
ASKING $400 SHIPPED ANYWHERE IN THE CONUS.
EMAIL ME DIRECT IF INTERESTED TO bmekeel@comcast.net.
