The PLL Board problem seems pretty common in the ts-440s radio. The parts
radio may have the same issues. I don't believe kenwood sells the
replacement board anymore... in fact it's been out of production for
some years now.

Back in days of old... I repaired my share of 440 pll problems. You might
try resoldering the traces and reheating the board with a shrink tube gun.
Sometimes the probably was just a bad solder connection or that $#%&* wax
glue used to lock the parts down.

good luck
