Anan G2-ultra VFO running alone

[Bonin]

Hi,
today my G2-ultra show strange behavior, namely VFO running alone and VFO knob is barley responsive?
The same is in Thetis.
Anny idea what can be wrong?

Thanks

From your description of the problem it sounds to me like a hardware problem. Possibly the encoder is causing this. You may need to contact Apache Labs to get it resolved.

Unfortunately, I don't know who handles service and repair for Apache labs in Europe. There may be a link on their website to someone or a dealer in Europe who can help you. Otherwise, you will most likely have to fix it yourself. Or find someone near you who is familiar with the Apache Labs hardware.
You might be able to fix it yourself. But, if your radio is still in warranty, it would be better for a company that is servicing Apache Labs radios to help you.

You can try. AGV Radio in Spain. agvradio@agvradio.com
My Anan G2 black face was under warranty. The English Dealer sent it to a "Doug" in America
Best luck sm6usu Svante.

Has anybody schematics from G2-ultra.
I have already contact Apache labs, no response.

Do the other controls work OK?

If the other controls work OK, then it would suggest a problem with the encoder itself (which converts a rotating VFO control into a series of pulses).

Hi Laurence,

yes, everything else work es it should.
I need a schematics, or does anyone know what encoder is used?
