    "content": "This is similar to a problem I had some time ago and it was both bad \npots. You have two pots to calibrate the meters and two pots for \ncomputer control. The computer control ones were very sensitive to EMI. \nI replaced both pots and the unit has been fine ever since. I had found \nthe one end of the pots were open preventing accurate adjustments. \nHopefully this is all that is wrong with yours. The pots were fairly \ninexpensive from Yaesu. I took and paralleled a regular 500 pot \nexternally (alligator clip wires) to confirm this and found that I was \nable to adjust the unit.\n\nRegards,\n\n    Reid Bristor, W4UPD\n\n\nJohn Price wrote:\n> I have hauled out my spare 5400 rotor for field day and found I have a\n> problem.
