[Kenwood] TS-950SDX Help please!!!

Tue Jul 20 20:40:04 EDT 2004

Hi all!
Is there anybody who can help me on finding the problem with
my TS-950SDX? Here is the description of the problem.
.1 After power on the radio the s-meter bargraph moves to full scale
for a very short time, i can say that he moves from and to full scale
3 or 4 times in a second or just 1 time and remains "normal" but there 
are no
audio on the speaker or reading signals on the s-meter.
.2 He can stay in this for some minutes and later start working normal
or 3,4,5 days without nothing from him. When he is "dead" the RF knob has
no effect on the s-meter as it should be, i.e. no movement on the 
s-meter as i turn
it to the left.
BTW, all other knobs are in his normal position and when this problem isn´t
showing the radio works very well as always.
I do not have the service manual, anybody who can send me a copy by email
with good quality pictures of the shcematics?
All the hints from all of you and experts on electronics of the radio 
are very welcome.
Thanks in advance
Vic
