    • K
      kennethhudsonSep 5, 2025
      If the sensitivity of your Icom Transceiver is low, and only strong signals are audible, the antenna feedline or connector may have poor contact or be short-circuited. Check the feedline and, if necessary, replace it or resolder the antenna connector. Also, the squelch attenuator function might be activated. Adjust the squelch between the 10–12 o’clock position or level 12 to 19, depending on your device.
