I just got a DX 33 HML. Pluged up and all worked for 30 seconds. Then dead. Only light on was S-Meter. Turned off and then back on and worked for another 20 seconds. Had 15 Watts on high before going out again. Only light on was S-Meter. Thought it might be a voltage regulator???? No number on board. Maybe as 3600-14B???? How do I identify board, AND get part and repair info??? Can you guys tell me where to start??
Thanks

If it is the main regulator (likely) it's the obviuos large regulator sinked to the right wall near the rear (2sb754).

He is right , common problem..The center leg of the regulator breaks free from the main board...Center left side on solder side of board. It is attached to the chassis.

Thanks 307/671. It was regulator. Bad solder joint. Looked good but still faulty. Radio Ok but no Modulation on low power. Med and High ok. Any suggestions.
