Linda,

What is a dry and store unit?

I’ve never heard of such a thing.

Hi fellow hams,

 

First thank you so much for all of your suggestions.

 

I learned a lot today.

 

I found out what the problem was regarding my thunking noise on the tmv71a
on the 2 meter side.

 

Recently, I bought a new global dry and store unit to replace my old one.

 

I gave my husband my old one as it was still working, but I wanted the newer
model.

 

Anyway, we plugged the old unit in the kitchen on sat morning I think and
since I didn't turn on the radio that day, I didn't think anything of it.
Keep in mind, the mag mount is in the kitchen on the counter by a window.
The dry and store unit was also on the counter.

 

Well, I turned on the radio yesterday and got that thunking sound.

 

I had art remove the dry and store unit away from the kitchen and when I
turned on the radio, the thunking noise stopped. Amazing! So I have learned
something. 

 

Phew! All's well now.

 

 

 

 

Hugs and 73
