      Elizabeth ReynoldsAug 10, 2025
      If the charge indicator doesn't appear when charging, there could be a few reasons. First, ensure the transceiver is correctly placed on the Charger Cradle. Also, verify that the Charger Cradle is receiving power by connecting the USB AC Adapter for AC/DC power. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it may be due to a defective built-in battery.

      Ronald LarsonAug 20, 2025
      If your Standard Horizon Transceiver isn't outputting sound when you press and hold the SQL key, there are a couple of potential causes. It could be due to a low battery, so try charging it. Alternatively, the audio volume level might be too low. In that case, press the [VOL+] key until you hear background noise.
