Leen. SECTION 8.TROUBLESHOOTING =
The symptoms listed below are in no way indications that the transceiver is defective. If trouble with the transceiver can-
not be remedied even after the following checks have been performed, consult your dealer or your nearest service station.
SYMPTOM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
REMEDY
Turning on POWER switch will
not light up pilot lamp.
. AC power cord is not fully inserted
into the connector.
. Improper connection of power cord.
. Fuse is blown out.
. Firmly insert the plug of the cord
into the connector.
2. Plug in the cord fully.
3. Replace the fuse (if new fuse blows,
the transceiver needs repair).
Antenna is properly installed but
the transceiver will not receive
signals.
. PTT switch on the microphone is in
"talk" position.
. FIX CH switch is set in empty
channel position.
. CAL switch is set in ON position.
. Turn PTT switch to 'receive' posi-
tion.
. Rotate the switch to VFO position
or to a channel position where the
channel indicator lamp lights.
3. Turn CAL switch (SQUELCH knob)
clockwise for OFF position.
Ny
No background noise from the
speaker in FM mode.
. Squelch circuit is in service.
. Turn SQUELCH knob fully
counterclockwise. (not CAL)
Transceiver is connected to
antenna, but no signal is received
while "S" meter pointer remains
deflected.
. RF GAIN control is set too low.
. Turn RF GAIN control
clockwise.
fully
Even in the absence of signal, "S"
meter pointer remains deflected.
. RF GAIN control is set too low.
. METER switch is set to CEN posi-
tion in FM mode.
1. Turn RF GAIN control fully
clockwise (if meter indication
remains the same, the transceiver is
defective).
2. Set METER switch to "S" position.
* SSB signal is being received but
speaker output remains un-
intelligible.
. Transceiver is set for a wrong side-
band.
1. Shift MODE switch to USB or to
LSB.
* RIT knob is ineffective in fine tur-
ning.
. RIT switch is in OFF position.
1. Set the switch to ON position.
* There is a frequency lag between
transmission and reception.
. RIT knob is not in the "O" position
while RIT switch is ON.
1. Set RIT switch to OFF, or set RIT
knob to "O" position.
* Noise blanker circuit is not fully
effective in suppressing noise.
. Strong signal exists close to the
operating frequency.
. Some interfering noise similar to
SSB signal in waveform is coming
in from a nearby source (such as
high-frequency welder or corona
discharging device).
* No RF power.
. Absence of 9-pin MT plug in VOX
socket.
. CAL switch is set in ON position.
1. Firmly connect the MT plug.
2. Turn clockwise the CAL.
