Hello all,

My Becker 4201 just started acting up. Specifically, it has a cyclic regular dead spot when transmitting, so the person listening to you gets about half of each word. It receives just fine, and all functions work as they should. Same thing happens with a fully charged battery or one that has been used for several hours. Has anyone ever run in to this?

Thanks,

I did meter through to the extent possible and found consistent voltage through the system up to the connection blocks (one for power and one for ground). I checked the connections, fixed and tightened them and that seemed to do it. The wires on the radio harness seem a little small, but they are short, so I think they are ok. I think it is a stock becker wiring harness.
