Hi all.
I have a PRM8020 W1 on UHF CB which is behaving strangely.
It works perfectly but every now and again it will refuse to transmit (no arrow icon when PTT is pressed), and occasionally it will also stop receiving. (no crossed arrow and no audio)
If I power off the radio and power it back on again it works again just fine until next time.
I'm thinking there's a dodgy capacitor or regulator in the -9V supply or a broken track in the RF<>control board connector. Anything I should be looking for with this fault?
