      Hannah SotoAug 15, 2025
      If you're not getting any sound from your Alinco Transceiver, here are a few things to check: * Make sure the volume isn't set too low; adjust it as needed. * The squelch level might be set too high, preventing reception. Adjust the squelch to a lower setting. * Ensure tone squelch is turned off. * Also, confirm that you are not pressing the PTT key and transmitting, as this would cut off the receiving audio.
