[Yaesu] My 1000MP History

[Vitor Luis (PY2NY)]

My FT 1000MP was bought during last Dayton Hamvention 1996. Was a 
personal dream,but many problems occured.
1. Output transistors burned off with no apparent cause. Now is working,
after
US$ 450,00 cost with local repairman.
2. The three level drive power for internal antenna tuner isnīt working.
Every time,
and with any level (10-50-100) and all that I can see is the AT usign 50
watts.
Letīs continue with it, is good to avoid high power (100 watts????) damage!
3. More recently, a new problem: digital display above main knob are
blinking
just after turn on. After 10 minutes, rig is working again, no  blinking.
Does
the 1000MP wait to be warm ???? During initial minutes, number stay
blinking
specially last 3 numbers: Example:
14.003,00 - 14.008,80 - 14.003,00 - 14.008,80 - etc etc  . . . . . . 

Do you any sugestion?? 73 73 73
