[TowerTalk] Yaesu G-2800 DXC failure

[Michael Pfeuffer]

Hi Arnaldo,

I had the same thing happen with a G-1000, & traced it back to a Polyphaser 
control line lightning arrester at the base of the tower.  I haven't had 
time to diagnose the bad unit, but assumed that there was a short or 
resistance between some of the lines.  Hope this helps.
