Thomas G. Marshall coughed up:
My receiver once in a while will buzz loudly or humm softly. This
happens maybe once every 30 days or so, and I use the thing every
day. It *might* be increasing, but I'm not sure.

Furthermore, I can get it to go away by turning the receiver off
then on again.

How are you with a soldering iron?
You could try to resolder the PCB.
If that fails, there are probably some electrolytics on the way out.
If you know what to do and where to get them, it's an easy and
cost-effective repair.
If not, toss it.


I assume that this means that it is likely that there is a part of the
printed circuit board that has burned or broken away?

I am fairly "ok" with a s-iron. As long as the things nearby the solder
point can withstand the heat. I know about not making "cold solder points",
which are flakey.

Are lower end kenwood receivers repairable at the component level?
