The fix was to replace the in-line fuse on the negative DC
supply. All better now. Although, it seems the spec. in the
manual calls for a 'FGB 30 A' fuse. There was, and is, a 25 A
'normal' glass cylinder fuse. I'm still a bit fuzzy on what
exactly a 'FGB' fuse might be.<br clear="none">

Almost a year and a half ago my TS-2000
developed a problem with intermittent shutdown that eventually
graduated to brick status. After MUCH troubleshooting the
root cause was a power line fuse that had transformed into a
1.2k resistor. I thought at the time that this was so weird
it had to be a one-off.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
Well... now it's a two-off. My IC-756 did the exact same
thing this morning after some heavy FT8 use and sure enough,
another fuse->resistor transformation. Just to be clear,
they don't show as open, nor short. They read ~1k ohm.<br clear="none">

Is this a known/common occurrence or do I live in some weird
