Loading...How to fix Icom Transceiver when power does not come on?
If your Icom Transceiver's power isn't coming on, first, ensure the AC power cable is correctly connected. Then, check if the internal power supply is turned OFF and turn it ON. Also, inspect the circuit breaker; if it's tripped, identify the cause and reset it.
What to do if there is no sound from Icom Transceiver speaker?
If you're not getting any sound from your Icom Transceiver's speaker, first, check the volume level and rotate [AF] clockwise to increase it. If that doesn't work, ensure the squelch isn't closed by turning [SQL] to the 10 o’clock position. Also, make sure the transceiver is in receive mode by pushing [TRANSMIT] or checking the SEND line of any connected external unit.
