I am having a strange problem with my IC756PRO since hooking it back up last night. I had it bubble wrapped and hand carried it to Bonaire so the airlines couldn't of done any damage.

 

Here is the symtom :  I have to turn the AF Gain control up all the way to get any audio out of either the

speaker of headphone jack. When I turn to volume down (just slightly to all the way CCW) the audio disappears completely even though there is still a signal. I know this because the S-meter is still functioning like there is still a signal there.

 

I have the done a CPU reset and checked all the menu settings but the problem still exists. Maybe the pot for the AF Gain is bad ??  You would think if that was the case it would be intermittent if I shaked the knob around and not cut off completely. I opened it up last night but nothing appeared blown inside the radio. Any ideas ?
