Hi there....
    I have an FT8100R that seems to have burnt out part of the receiver
stage.  Has anyone seen this happen on their rig?  One day, while
transmitting, I smelled componets burning, stopped transmitting and
noticed that I had almost no receive
whatsoever.  Has this happened to anyone???

    Also, high SWR seems to cause a sticking in TX mode on 2m.  Has
Yaesu owned
up to a fix on this problem?

Thanks,
Chuck / W3YNI
