About 10 months ago, the capacitors on the A9 Power Distribution board failed, and I sent the radio back to the factory to get it fixed. Well, just 10 months later, the same thing happened again. This time, I decided to fix it myself with premium capacitors purchased through Mouser. The fix worked! The 470 uf, 16 Volt, 85 degree C caps, C6, C7 and C9 were replaced with ultra-low ESR 50 Volt, 105 degree C units that fit perfectly in the board.
I have a whole page on my website for anyone interested, including pictures and
ordering information for the caps. Hopefully, these will last longer than the
first two sets!
