I have a yaesu ft-900 that has stopped working on 40, 80 and 160 meters.  All the rest of the frequencies work.  The display flashes the  frequecies that ar on the screen.  I have have tried resetting and installing a new battery. 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Is there anyone that could repair if need be

Hi, as far as I can remember (if my memory serves me) normally the Blinking / Flashing will indicate that the PLL is intermittently Out Of Lock. probably because  the device has now aged and possibly some components have drifted in value a little meaning: out of alignment so the PLL circuit can no longer function properly to keep the desired frequency Locked in place.

So, there is a very good chance that You’ll need to perform a re-alignment on your FT-900.

I hope it helps
