Strange problem with ICOM AT500 tuner
Problem solved. Re-seated all the connectors on the main board and the
tuner is now working.

My ICOM AT500 has a fault where the auto tuner portion works properly
on transmit but on receive, the tuner retunes to a non matched setting.
The presets work and I can manualy tune the tuner via the presets (but
that defeats the point of having an auto tuner)
Problems began when the shaft on one of the motors come loose. I
believe I have everything mechanically back together correctly as there
seems no way that the auto tuner portion should work on transmit and
then de-tune on receive.
This unit is full of analog circuits and I have no clue where to start.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
