How to turn on beep sounds on Icom ic-m423g Transceiver?
If you are not hearing any beep sounds on your Icom Transceiver, it is likely that the beep tones are turned off. Go to the CONFIGURATION menu and turn the beep tones ON.
What does 'NO POSITION' and 'NO TIME' mean on Icom Transceiver?
If your Icom Transceiver displays “NO POSITION” and “NO TIME” instead of the position and time (for IC-M423G, IC-M423GE, and IC-M424G models only), this indicates that the GPS signal is not being received correctly. Ensure the transceiver is mounted in a location where no objects obstruct the satellite signal. If that doesn't work, you may need to manually enter the position and time.
Why distress calls cannot be transmitted on Icom ic-m423g Transceiver?
If distress calls cannot be transmitted from your Icom Transceiver, the MMSI (DSC self ID) code has not been entered. Enter the MMSI (DSC self ID) code into the transceiver.
