[Yaesu] FT1000MP Does not power up for 4 to 5 minutes

[Kevan Nason]

Carl,

No answer for you, but mine (field) had also done that.  After a month
or so of intermittent starts it returned to normal.  Will look on
internet and see if anything pops up.

Sick feeling pushing the button and then nothing happens isn't it?
