TS440S.51 de DJ4XN @ DK0MTV.#RPL.DEU.EU I had this problem. I took out the PLL plattine and found almost all solder points broken. In a circle arround the wire. Big soldering junk! After soldering almost all points very carefull using a lens, the TS 440 works now since 3 years without any problems. 73 and 55 de Peter, DJ4XN
