Jerry (and the list),

You've saved my Corsair II a trip back to TN with your writeup on the replacement of the C6 capacitor. I recently had the display freeze up just after the RAC Canada day contest, and powering off the Corsair and then back on left me with a blank display (save for the decimal point). A quick scan on the list archives revealed the identical problem and potential solution. Trying the easy fixes first (cleaning the jumper connections) didn't help. What did work was replacing C6 on the logic board with a fresh 2.2 uf cap. Solved the problem and its been perfect now for the past few days. Kudos to you sir...
