yaesu ft 8100

Hi all
I have had my little ft 8100 for a number of years working flawlessly in my car but all of a sudden when I press the PTT the radio goes completely deaf squelch nothing works its like something had turned up the squelch fully no audio nothing, If I turn the radio off and leave it for a few minutes it comes back to life!! at least until I key up again had any one got any ideas? Now i know the radio was prone to problems (earlier ones anyway) but I would love to get it working again
Many thanks
Stephen

I had a similar problem and traced it to the earth through plating on the PCB. The earthing between planes on the PCB uses plated through holes that fail. You have to adda few links at selected places on the earth track.
