If the Icom Transceiver displays 'L' on the LCD and the received audio is interrupted, it's likely due to packet loss from a network error during internet reception. The suggested solution is to wait a while and try again.
Why are “DV” and “FM” icons blinking on my Icom ID-5100E Transceiver?
If the Icom Transceiver shows 'DV' and 'FM' icons blinking alternately, it indicates that an FM signal is being received while the transceiver is in DV mode. Wait a while, and try again.
What to do if Icom Transceiver does not return a status reply after my call?
If your Icom Transceiver does not return a status reply after your call, several factors could be at play. The repeater setting might be incorrect; if so, select the correct repeater. Your transmission may not be reaching the repeater; in that case, correct the repeater frequency, frequency offset, or duplex setting. You can also try waiting until you are closer to the repeater, or try to access another repeater.
What to do if Icom ID-5100E Transceiver replies ‘RPT?’ and its call sign?
If your Icom Transceiver replies with 'RPT?' and its call sign after your call, the destination repeater call sign is likely incorrect. Correctly set the destination repeater call sign.
What to do if Icom ID-5100E replies ‘UR?’ and its call sign?
If your Icom Transceiver replies with 'UR?' and its call sign after your call, it means the call was successfully sent, but no station immediately replied. Wait for a while, and try again.
Why can't I make a Gateway call on my Icom ID-5100E?
If a local area call can be made, but a Gateway call or destination station call cannot be made on your Icom Transceiver, your call sign (MY) may not be registered at a D-STAR repeater. Register your call sign (MY) on a D-STAR repeater, or confirm the registration of the call sign.
