      From: peterwieck33@gmail.com              > It's sitting on the bench open and behaving, but I can induce        > problem with mech RF board movement or by reassembly at any time.               And that is your best clue!              I suspect that there is an intermittent in one (or more) component on the RF       board - a lifted leg, cracked leg, cold solder or similar that goes       intermittent with heat, vibration, or just plain cussedness. Not knowing (but       suspecting) this board is        mostly SMT devices, if you have a thin bamboo skewer, you might try tapping on       the individual components to try and get to a specific culprit.               Good luck with it!              Peter Wieck       Melrose Park, PA               --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
