    What to do if my Retevis Marine Radio cannot transmit or transmit in high power?
    • B
      Bruce WardAug 6, 2025
      If your Retevis Marine Radio won't transmit or has limited high power, it could be due to several reasons. Some channels might restrict transmission to low power, so try switching to a channel without this limitation. Alternatively, the battery could be low, requiring you to charge it. Ensure you are not in Weather Channel or Channel 70, as this can also affect transmission. You may also need to press the [Hi/Lo] button to select high power transmit.

      Timothy GutierrezAug 14, 2025
      If you're not getting any sound from the loudspeaker of your Retevis Marine Radio, there are a few potential causes. First, the squelch level might be set too high; try adjusting it to a more appropriate level. Second, the volume level could be too low, so increase the volume. Finally, check for water in the loudspeaker and drain it if necessary.

    What does it mean when my Retevis RA26 Marine Radio indicates “ER” and “CHG”?
    • E
      Eric FloresAug 19, 2025
      If your Retevis Marine Radio indicates “ER” and “CHG”, it means that the temperature range for charging is not optimal (exceeds 0~+45°C) or continuing charging causes high battery heat. Move the radio to a cooler environment. You can also power it on when charging.

    Why can't my Retevis RA26 communicate in the same channel?
    • D
      Deanna BennettAug 27, 2025
      If your Retevis Marine Radio cannot communicate on the same channel, it could be due to the channel being set to duplex (DUP). Try selecting a different channel. Alternatively, if you are working in a self-set channel group, ensure that you have set the same channel frequency.

    Why Retevis Marine Radio cannot scan?
    • D
      Daniel RowlandSep 1, 2025
      If your Retevis Marine Radio is unable to scan, it might be because no TAG channels are set. You need to set TAG channels for the scanning function to work properly.
