Problem Things to Try
The power LED on the
charger doesn’t turn
on.
- Don’t use the charger when the
ambient temperature is below 41°
F (5° C) or above 104° F (40° C).
- Make sure the charging contacts
on the radio and charger are clean.
- Replace the battery.
The radio won’t
transmit.
Make sure you are not in weather or
scan mode.
Make sure you are not trying to
transmit on a receive-only channel
or transmit at the wrong power level
for this channel (see the channel
lists starting on page E-23).
Check the battery power level; if it’s
low, charge the battery before trying
to transmit.
Make sure the duration of each
transmission is less than 5 minutes.
I can’t hear anything
from the speaker.
Adjust the squelch level; it is
probably too high.
Noise comes out of
the speaker all the
time
Adjust the squelch level; it is
probably too low.
I can transmit, but no
one can hear me.
Check your UIC channel settings:
does the area you are in use
different channel assignments?
I’m not getting hazard
alerts.
Make sure Weather Alert Watch is
turned on.
The display ashes,
and I don’t know why.
The channel number on the display
will ash if the radio is in a watch
mode or in scan mode. Try turning
off scanning, Weather Alert Watch,
Triple Watch, or Dual Watch (see
page E-7).
