What to do if repeater does not return status reply on Icom ID-51A?
If the repeater does not return a status reply after your call using the Icom Transceiver, the repeater setting may be wrong, so select the correct repeater. Your transmission may not have reached the repeater, so correct the repeater frequency, frequency offset, or duplex setting. You may also need to get closer to the repeater or try accessing another repeater.
Why is no reply received after a call on Icom ID-51A Transceiver?
If you are not receiving a reply after making a call on your Icom Transceiver, ensure that the duplex is not set, and the receive and transmit frequencies are not different. Set the simplex operation. Also, consider that no station may be in range or on the same frequency; wait for a while and try again.
What to do if Icom Transceiver is charging impossible at power ON?
If charging is impossible at power ON, the “Charging (Power ON)” setting may be OFF (default). Set the “Charging (Power ON)” setting to ON in the Function Menu.
Why does my Icom Transceiver repeater reply ‘RX’ or ‘RPT?’ and the access repeater’s call sign after my call?
If the repeater replies ‘RX’ or ‘RPT?’ and the access repeater’s call sign after your call, your own call sign (MY) may not have been set (set your own call sign (MY)), or your own call sign (MY) may not have been registered on a gateway repeater, or the registered contents do not match your transceiver’s setting (register your own call sign (MY) on a gateway repeater, or confirm the registration of the call sign).
Why Icom Transceiver position data cannot be received?
Position data may not be received if an external GPS is selected in the GPS SET item on the Menu screen, but an external GPS receiver is not connected. Connect an external GPS receiver. Alternatively, select either INTERNAL GPS or EXTERNAL GPS in the GPS Set item on the Menu screen. Also, move until the GPS signal is received.
What to do if position data cannot be received on Icom Transceiver?
If your Icom Transceiver isn't receiving position data, check the GPS settings in the Menu. If 'External GPS' is selected but no external GPS receiver is connected, connect one. If 'OFF' or 'Manual' is selected, switch to either 'Internal GPS' or 'External GPS'. Also, ensure that the transceiver is receiving a GPS signal by moving to a location where the signal is stronger.
How to fix no sound from the speaker on Icom ID-51A Transceiver?
If no sound is coming from the speaker of your Icom Transceiver, first check the volume level and adjust it to a desired level. Also, check if an external speaker or cloning cable is connected to the [SP] jack. Disconnect them to restore sound from the internal speaker.
Why is transmitting impossible with my Icom Transceiver?
If you cannot transmit with your Icom Transceiver, first ensure that the transmit power level isn't set too low (S-LOW, LOW1, or LOW2); if it is, set it to HIGH. Check the battery; if it's exhausted, charge or replace it. If you're using a battery case, switch to the battery pack or external DC power and set the power level to HIGH. Finally, verify that the PTT Lock and Busy Lockout functions are deactivated in the Function Menu.
What to do if Icom Transceiver frequency cannot be set?
If the frequency cannot be set, the Key Lock function may be activated (hold down [LOCK] for 1 second to cancel it), or the memory mode, Call channel mode, Weather channel mode, or DR function is selected (push [V/MHz] to select the VFO mode).
