Why is there no sound coming from my Icom Transceiver speaker?
If you're experiencing little to no sound from the Icom Transceiver's speaker, there could be a few reasons. First, the squelch level might be set too high, so adjust it to the threshold point. Also, the volume level could be too low; increase it to a suitable level. Finally, if the speaker has been exposed to water, use the AquaQuake function to remove it.
