Why my Furuno UAIS TRANPONDER FA-150 Marine Radio cannot transmit or receive?
If your Furuno Marine Radio cannot transmit or receive, first ensure that the VHF antenna cable is securely fastened. Next, inspect the VHF antenna for any signs of damage. If you're trying to send a TX message, try using a different TX channel by navigating to MENU, then MSG, then CREATE MSG, then SET MSG TYPE, and finally CHANNEL.
What to do if my Furuno Marine Radio has no position data?
