[Yaesu] Quadra VP-1000 PSU repair procedure

[Adam Farson]

A common failure mode in the Quadra VP-1000 PSU is the destruction of
resistors R2A, R2B and R2C  (5.6 ohm 5W ceramic, Yaesu part number
J31379004) located on power supply board 1. These resistors act as a fuse to
protect from mains surges when turning on the power supply. Bert N8NN has
very kindly written a repair procedure for this failure mode. Here is a

The Quadra is probably the best HF amplifier Yaesu ever built. Mine is still
serving me flawlessly after more than 12 years in my station.

Cheers for now, 73,
