I have a problem with an Orion II when first powered on.
The unit begins to come up:
1. Screen comes on, displays TT Logo, Firmware Revisions and so on.
2. As the unit completes that boot, the S-Meter lights and the
screen goes out.
3. With the screen out, there is nothing lit on the front panel.
No selection lights at all.
4. If the screen stays lit, the lights are lit, but the main
receiver seems muted.
5. With the main receiver muted, there is no transmit capability
through either VFO.
6. I can hear on the sub-receiver (standard sub, not optional sub)
but not transmit on it.
Is this a problem that will involve the factory?
TIA es 73, Byron
PS. Did Master Rest, Memory Clear, Firmware Update, Rinse and Repeat.

Mine did exactly the same, electrolytic caps on the A9 (Power
distribution) board are the most likely culprit, they need to be
replaced with the best you can find (125°/Low ESR types)
you might as well do them all (5 if my memory serves me right) at once,
if the aren't gone already they will go eventually)
