• Blown fuse.
• Volume is too low.
• The audio mute function is activated.
• Squelch is set too high.
• A selective call or squelch function is activated
such as pocket beep or tone squelch.
• Antenna feedline or the antenna connector has a
poor contact or is short circuited.
• Squelch attenuator function is activated.
• The other station is using tone squelch.
• The transceiver is set to duplex.
• Wrong offset frequency is programmed.
• Wrong subaudible tone frequency is programmed.
• The frequency lock function is activated.
• Priority watch is paused on the watching frequency.
• The frequency lock function is activated.
• The microphone keypad lock function is activated.
• Priority watch is paused on the watching fre-
quency.
• Check the connector pins.
• Re-connect the power cable observing the proper
polarity. Replace the fuse if damaged.

• Rotate [VOL] clockwise.
• Push any key to deactivate it.
• Set the squelch level to the threshold.
• Turn the appropriate function OFF.
• Check, and if necessary, replace the feedline or sol-
der the antenna connector again.
• Set [SQL] between 10–12 o’clock position.
• Turn the tone squelch function ON.
