Well there I was, in my shack, tuning up my TS830 so I could do some operating in PSK on 30M when Pop!!! the rig went dead. Once the initial panic had passed I found that the screw in AC fuse at the back of the rig had blown. This is a 4amp fuse and of course I didn't have any. I replaced it with a 2amp, which will run the rig on receive OK. I am hoping to get some replacement fuses in Maplins on the way home from work tomorrow. Until then its receive only on the data modes here!
The same thing just happened to me today 3/6/2010 while tuning up at 21 MHz, Did the fuse replacement fix it?
