To restore normal operation for the Alinco DJ-A10, ensure the following settings:

1. TX Off: Set to OFF so that PTT (Push-To-Talk) operation is enabled.
2. Whisper Mode: Set to OFF unless you are speaking in a low voice. Leaving it ON unnecessarily may distort your voice.

To set or check these:

- For TX Off: Ensure the TX Off parameter is OFF.
- For Whisper Mode:
1. Press 【A】 to enter the function menu.
2. Press 【8】.
3. Use 【B】/【C】 to go to Menu 14 “WHISPE”.
4. Press 【A】, then use 【B】/【C】 to select OFF.

These steps will return the radio to normal voice transmission and PTT functionality.
