I landed and found that all of my memory freq's were gone. But, to my

Any thoughts on what would have flashed the freq's in memory?

The only thing I'm confident of is that the problem will resurface. I
did nothing to solve it so it will be back. I guess I'll fly with the

There was a Microair SB to re-seat the micro controller. *Poor contact
with the socket was causing a variety is problems, some of which only
showed up when the radio was hot. *It's easy enough to do if you are
competent with electronics repair but I don't know if it applicable to

factory no longer publishes the SBs but I have a copy and photos of
the insides.
