Tom,
Since this happens at odd times with long periods between events, I'm
not sure I would start doing major changes "just in case".
Fire up the radio and start jiggling coax connectors. Between radio and
amp, amp to TW-1, and TW-1 to tuner. So there are 3 jumpers and 6
connectors to play with.
I would check the voltage on the power supply, but I seem to remember
that a few times over the years when you had a problem and suspected
ps voltage, it always turned out to be something else. Bad jumper one
time if I recall.
If the problem returns, connect your dummy load or antenna direct to
the radio, see if RX comes back and check swr using the Kenwood's VGS-1.
I think sending it out for service at this point will just result in a
"no problem found" reply as well as loss of radio time and shipping
costs. You can always box it up and send it here, I'll be happy to
evaluate it for a few months n/c.
