Push any key to deactivate it. * The squelch might be set too high. Set the squelch level to the threshold. * A selective call or squelch function, like pocket beep or tone squelch, could be activated. Turn the appropriate function OFF.
Why is my Icom Transceiver sensitivity low?
If the sensitivity of your Icom Transceiver is low, and only strong signals are audible: * The antenna feedline or the antenna connector may have a poor contact or be short-circuited. Check, and if necessary, replace the feedline or solder the antenna connector again. * The squelch attenuator function may be activated. Set [SQL] between 10–12 o’clock position.
How to troubleshoot Icom IC-2820H Transceiver scan not working?
If the scan function does not operate on your Icom Transceiver: * The squelch might be open. Set the squelch to the threshold point. * Only 1 memory channel may be programmed, or other channels are set as skip channels. Program other memory channels or cancel the memory skip function in the desired channels. * Priority watch could be activated. Cancel the watch.
What to do if Icom IC-2820H Transceiver repeater cannot be accessed?
If the repeater cannot be accessed with your Icom Transceiver: * The wrong offset frequency may be programmed. Correct the offset frequency. * The wrong subaudible tone frequency may be programmed. Correct the subaudible tone frequency.
Why is no contact possible with another station on my Icom Transceiver?
If no contact is possible with another station using your Icom Transceiver: * The other station may be using tone squelch. Turn the tone squelch function ON. * The transceiver may be set to duplex. Set to simplex.
Why some Icom IC-2820H memory channels cannot be selected via the tuning dial?
