[Yaesu] Yaesu FT767GX Dead

[Peter Sundberg]

Sounds like the internal PSU is dead. Probably a couple of capacitors in
the switch mode powersupply have gone bad, this is a common fault. Try
running the rig on an external 12 VDC to verify that it is ok. 

Same thing happended to me with my FT-736R. After running it on an external
supply for a while I found a nice 12 volt module that fitted inside the
rig, replacing the original switch mode PSU. 

Hope this helps.
