Why is there no sound from my Icom IC-GM1600E Two-Way Radio speaker?
There could be several reasons why you're not hearing any sound: * The squelch level might be set too high. Try adjusting it to the threshold point. * The volume could be too low. Rotate the [VOL] knob to increase the volume to a suitable level. * The speaker may have water in it. Drain any water from the speaker. * The [MIC/SP] connector may be wet. Ensure the [MIC/SP] connector is dry.
Why can't I transmit or select high power on my Icom Two-Way Radio?
If you are unable to transmit or select high power, it could be due to: * A depleted battery. Replace the battery pack. * The output power is set to low. Push [Hi/Lo• ] to select high power.
Why is my Icom Two-Way Radio transmitting continuously with VOX, even when I'm not speaking?
If your radio transmits continuously while using the VOX function, even when you are not speaking, it may be caused by: * Loud ambient noise. Try removing the headset cable. * Incorrect VOX gain settings. Set the VOX gain to dulling.
