does anyone have a
recommendation as to what might be happening, and if there is a fix, short
of sending it to Sony?

Sounds like a blown FET. I hear the following folks will do the repair for only
$25, far cheaper than Sony:

Sparks Radio Shop
8679 Pinkhurst Drive
Minocqua, WI 54548


I haven't done business with them myself, but you might want to check it out!

Well darn. I just did that test on my Sony, and wouldn't you know, it
failed. Looks like I'll be sending it in to Vern at Sparks Radio Shop
for the necessary repair work.
I'll let you all know how that goes, but I don't anticipate any
problems.

has the FET problem:
