Ham Radio Help Desk

Hello all,

I wonder if any of you had your display unit for your Kenwood TM-G707 2/440 transceiver go blank and reboot even while the radio operates just fine.

If I move the wire with respect to the control head in a certain position this happens.

Is this just a case of dirty contacts between the little cable adapter and the control head or have any of you seen the wire in the cable actually break?

I guess this question applies to any remote display head models from any manufacturer. I had heard Kenwood units are especially prone to this behavior.

Thanks for your observations.
