During the course of the CQ WW contest last weekend, I noticed that my =
computer was not tracking with the FT-1000-MP.  When it didn't track at =
all, the CAT light on the front panel didn't blink.  Before it stopped =
completely, the CAT light began blinking somewhat erratically.  Turning =
the radio off for about five minutes seemed to cure the problem for =
about 10 hours.  Any sugestions?
