If the displayed frequency on your Icom Transceiver isn't changing properly, it could be due to the dial lock function being activated; deactivate it by pushing [LOCK]. Alternatively, the internal CPU may have malfunctioned; in this case, reset the CPU by pushing [UP] and [DN] while turning the power ON.
What to do if Icom I706MKTMG Transceiver power does not come on?
If your Icom Transceiver isn't powering on, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the DC power cable is correctly connected. A blown fuse could also be the culprit; check and replace it if necessary, noting there are fuses in both the DC power cable and the PA unit. Lastly, if you're using a 12V battery, verify that it isn't exhausted by checking its voltage with the power switch pushed in.
Why is there no sound from my Icom Transceiver speaker?
If you're not getting any sound from your Icom Transceiver speaker, there are several things to check: * Ensure the volume isn't set too low by rotating the [AF] control clockwise. * Make sure the squelch isn't closed by rotating the [SQL] control counterclockwise. * Verify the transceiver isn't stuck in transmitting mode by releasing [PTT] or checking the SEND line of any connected external units. * Check the connections of any external speakers or headphones. * If using an optional SP-20 EXTERNAL SPEAKER, check the speaker ON/OFF or A/B switch.
How to fix low output power on Icom Transceiver?
If the output power of your Icom Transceiver is too low, consider these potential causes: The power may be set lower than the maximum; adjust the output power in quick set mode. The microphone gain might be set too low; increase it to a suitable level using quick set mode. Also, check the antenna connection, feed line condition, and ensure you've selected an antenna appropriate for your operating frequency. Finally, if you have an optional antenna tuner connected, try manually tuning the antenna by pushing [TUNE].
Why is the sensitivity low on my Icom I706MKTMG Transceiver?
Low sensitivity on your Icom Transceiver could stem from several issues. Ensure the antenna is properly connected to the antenna connector. Inspect the antenna feed line for cuts or shorts and correct any issues. Verify that you've selected an antenna suitable for the operating frequency. Try manually tuning the antenna by pushing [TUNE]. Finally, check if the attenuator function is activated and, if so, turn it OFF by pushing [ATT].
Why can't I access a repeater with my Icom I706MKTMG?
If you're having trouble accessing a repeater with your Icom Transceiver, there are a few things to check. First, ensure the split function is activated by pushing [DUP] to turn it ON. Verify that you have set the correct transmit frequency into VFO A and B or into one of the memory channels. If the repeater requires a subaudible tone, use [TON] to select FM-T. Also, confirm that the programmed subaudible tone frequency is correct by adjusting it using quick set mode.
What to do if Icom I706MKTMG Transceiver receive signal is distorted with strong signals?
If you're experiencing distortion of the received signal with strong signals on your Icom Transceiver, try turning OFF the noise blanker function by pushing [NB]. Also, try turning OFF the preamp by pushing [P.AMP].
Why are my transmitted signals distorted on my Icom I706MKTMG Transceiver?
Distorted transmitted signals from your Icom Transceiver may be due to a microphone gain that is set too high; adjust the gain in quick set mode. If the speech compressor is ON, the [COMP LEVEL] may be rotated too far clockwise; set it to a more suitable position.
Why is the receive audio distorted on my Icom Transceiver?
If the receive audio on your Icom Transceiver is distorted, ensure that you have selected a suitable operating mode. Also, check that the [SHIFT] control is set to the center position.
Why can't I contact other stations with my Icom I706MKTMG Transceiver?
If you're unable to make contact with other stations using your Icom Transceiver, check if the RIT function is activated and, if so, turn it OFF by pushing RIT. Also, ensure the Split function is deactivated by pushing [SPLIT].
