      If the lights are off you have 90% chance of not having power to
      the interface, but, if you use a USB interface it may work... I
      have to check in the schematics but I'm pretty sure it will work
      with a USB programmer.<br>

              <p>There is a know issue with this radios about this:
                usually the kenwood interface for this radios take power
                from the radio not from the PC, and the power is taken
                from the same rail the LCD leds are powered. <br>

              <p>For some reason with time (or a mic cable short) a

                the front panel without +12V, that not a problem to the
