      If your Uniden Marine Radio won't transmit, first ensure you are not in Weather or Scan mode. Additionally, verify that you are not attempting to transmit on a receive-only channel and that you're using the correct power level for the channel. Check the battery level and charge if necessary. Also, ensure that each transmission is less than 5 minutes in duration.
