Well thought I would throw this out here.  I have a Yaesu YS60 power meter that due to an antenna malfunction and a Henry 2K Classic X smoked.  Disassembly reveals that one side of the pick up circuit has a split ferrite core, burned resistors and badly heated circuit trace.  One of two possibilities?  Since the parts are not available so I am told.  Does someone have a similar meter in similar condition that could use a good ferrite choke and associated parts from this one?  Or does someone have the parts to contribute to the resurrection of this meter?  Either way is fine with me, just cannot bring myself to throw the &^%$ thing away.  All other components are fine in the unit and it worked fairly well up to 2 kW level when it went up in smoke!
