PROBLEM

POWER SUPPLY

RECEIVE

POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

REF.

Power does not come
on when the [POWER]
switch is pushed.

No sound comes from
the speaker.

Sensitivity is low.

Receive audio is distor-
ted.

Receive signal is distor-
ted with strong signals.

DC power cable is improperly
connected.

Fuse is blown.

Battery is exhausted if you are using
a 12 V battery as the power source.

Reconnect the power cable correctly.

Check for the cause, then replace the
fuse with a spare one.

(Fuses are installed in two places. One is
installed in the DC power cable and the
other is installed in the PA unit.

Check the battery voltage with the
[POWER] pushed IN.

phone plug connection.

Check the speaker ON/OFF switch or
speaker A/B switch, when an optional
SP-20

EXTERNAL SPEAKER

is in use.

Reconnect to the antenna connector.

Check the feed line and correct any
improper conditions.

Select an antenna suitable for the
operating frequency.
Make sure that [ANT1] is used for
frequencies less than 60 MHz and
[ANT2] is used for frequencies of 60
MHz and above.

Push [TUNE] to manually tune the
antenna.

Push [ATT] to turn the function OFF.

Select a suitable operating mode.

Set [SHIFT] to the center position.
