After modifying an 857d for full expanded tx, I have an issue with powering on the radio. What happens is, after pushing the power button the radio clicks and clicks until you disconnect the power cable. Then you have to disconnect the HF antenna cable to get it to power on like normal. Once its powered on and all is hooked up the radio works perfect with the exp tx mod other than the tone that it makes when pushing any keys on the face, it sounds different. Why you need to disconnect the antenna cable is bit of a concern to me.
The radio is brand new and the mod looks just like the one posted here for the us version.. The pads look precise as the ones in the pics so not sure if i am missing something or if it could be a voltage issue with power. You would think this would be the issue prior to the mod.. 13.6v 7amps is the power supplied,a little weak for whats recommended but should be fine to power it on.
any feedback on this would be great..
