There is an FT950 Yahoo group where such questions are often asked. Some 950's have had a cable come loose connecting the front panel to a particular circuit board. Others have done a firmware upgrade to the 950 but used the wrong one (there are two series of FT950s with different DSP chips in them). I have heard good things about Yaesu tech support; several people have called there and gotten good advice. I can't think of anything else.
