Yaesu FT-757GXII repair - no display or sound

I managed to short something round the back of my 757 when it was switched on and after that, there was no RX audio or display and the ON AIR light was on and the meter at FSD (even though no other sign it was transmitting). Turns out it was an easy fix.

Great video mate, I'm glad you got it sorted. I have recently got one of these, so have now bookmarked this, just in case I ever have the same problem. These are Great little radio's :)

Thanks! Hope you have many happy years of operating it. There are a few videos out there about repairing it, it's a good vintage to get stuck into with a soldering iron (I wouldn't dare with more modern radios).

Good

why would the track even lift like this? i dont understand? that transistor didnt look to be working some super powerful circuitry.

[@Francois_Dupont]

you transmitted with no ant? is it the cause?

[@drsysop]

How do you get that radio to do 10 meter repeaters?

[@g0tum]

There isn't a built in repeater shift function, so you will need to use the SPLIT key. This enables you to transmit on one VFO frequency while receiving on the other.
