Friend has an S9 80 bought it last year worked great until a couple days ago, for no reason we can see the displays for channel and frequency just went all retarded, can't make out what channel or freq your on. I had seen some other posts where people bitched about the LED's burning out, but this isn't that problem, it's just all jacked up reads all goofy and jumps around. I would think it's probably a solder problem as most China garbage is plagued with bad solder joints. But was wondering if anyone else had experienced this problem and remedied it already. I searched on Google but couldn't find this problem, just the LED's burning out problems, which like I said, isn't the case with this one, just scrambled up.

TIA
