Rf limited S45hp fault
Hi guys got a S45hp here with faulty PA
When pa engaged the pa function is not working. The screen goes out though.
When you turn back to rx no speaker sound unless you power off and on the radio.

sounds like a cold solder joint around the pa section.

Re: Rf limited S45hp fault
Vibration is a problem with a lot of the "Magnum" radios, the PCB's are very thin compared to others, you are lucky that the board didn't crack when it became loose. You could add a light brush of liquid electric tape on the board screws to keep them from vibrating loose again.
