Hi Gordon,
Sounds like you have a pair of T355 T356 radios,
You may well want to open up the TX PA unit (Behind the alloy shield) and
change the electrolytics in there as well as this area is a well known area of
trouble and can cause no end of spuries.
Just ensure that you replace the caps with 105 deg C varients and you should be
fine and give you another 20 years of service :-)
Cheers

Thanks Gareth. I was going to replace the electro's, and a
current rating of 6A is more reasonable with only a single
pass transistor.
As you have probably guessed, this equipment is T300 series
but my surprise is that it has hardly been used. Set up as a
base station for CD and has lived its life in a cupboard as a
backup.
