I should mentioned that, in addition to the suggestions already offered, it could also be bad DR-7 board connections. I had a similar intermittent problem in my TR-7, and fought it off an on for several years before I finally got it resolved. To this day, I'm not sure if it was a solder connection somewhere on the board itself, or misalignment of pins in one of the Molex connectors. But I lean towards the Molex connectors. 73, -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
