I have a Superstar 3300 with a problem. The radio works great for a month or two then will stop transmiting audio for a couple of days, then it fine for month. any idea's were to start looking for the problem? I have had it into 3 tech now and they can not seem to get it to stop working to find the problem.

Tech 833 comment- You need to tell your tech to look for a cold solder joint on the board somewhere. If you have any skill at all with a soldering iron, use some paste flux and reheat all the connections on your board. Follow it up with some flux remover. That should do it.
