HI, I could be wrong here but what the heck.
My Yaesu FT-102 had the "no receive" problem at one time.
What I found was a tiny "grain of wheat" lamp in the receiver
which acted as a fuse to protect the receiver form spikes coming in.
I changed it and wala, the receive was back.
The TS-930 is of the same vintage as the 102.
Good Luck!!

I powered up my old TS-930 S yesterday and there was no RX. TX
operation appears to be normal. It seems that I have lost signal
somewhere between the front end and the detector. I suspect switching
or something in the RF section. I have no meter readings in receive.

For some reason the power supply and final fans are also not running.
I think that I remember that one of those fans would come on at power
up.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Mark, I will take a look. Thanks.

Robert, I went to Kansas City this morning and picked up a FT-1000
MPMKV. Your fault. LOL

No, Robert. I paid full price. Now if I can just save my marrage....
Not sure what I will do with the 930. I am going to try a few more
things to get the receive up. If I could, it would make a good backup.
It really is a good old machine. I will keep you in mind if I decide
to abandon it. Maybe one of those Canidian snow birds down in Texas
could pick it up for you on their way home. LOL My e-mail is
. Drop me an e-mail and let me know your call so I can
figure out where you are. I am in Southern Missouri on Pomme de Terre
Lake. I fish and ham for a living these days.

Does the internal calibrator work?

If so check the RX antenna switch beside the coax connector. It's easy to
switch it when removing or replacing the coax.

Neither fan operates at turn-on, both are temperature controlled.
