Bob,
Another suggestion, use liquid De-Oxit as your contact cleaner. It has a needle
dropper dispenser. As someone else mentioned, avoid spraying contact cleaner if
possible, however, the same cleaner is available in a spray can. I believe
that someone else also mentioned that you should check the connections for each
of the sub-miniature coaxial cables that interconnect between various boards.
Apply the liquid De-Oxit cleaner to the sub-miniature connectors, both the
outer shell (ground) and the center pin of the connector.
Best of luck ! Hope you find the problem.
73 and take care,
Dave, K2DP (St. Louis, MO)
