Icom Bp-209n W/ Mb-103 7.2v 1100 Mah Original Ic-v8 V82 U82 A6 A24 Questions & Answers
Why is my icom ic-718 hf radio stuck in tx mode?
It can be a few things but first try resetting your CPU, while your transceiver is off, hold down the UP & DOWN buttons simultaneously then turn the transceiver back on, now it should be reset to the factory default settings

I finds very difficult to read a particular station in my icom 718
Hi,
please move the radio away from it's current position to attempt to find alternative position where it's frequency will be transmitted clearly as intended. Also, please keep away from any microwaves or speakers so as not to cause any interference. Thank you.

Model 718. Why is CW mode kaput?
There are a few possible reasons why your radio might not be transmitting in CW mode. One possibility is that the keyer chip has gone bad. Another possibility is that there is a problem with the power supply. If you have a multimeter, you can check the voltages to see if they are within specification. Finally, it's also possible that there is something wrong with the antenna connection. Make sure that everything is securely connected and that there are no loose wires. I hope this helps!

ICOM A210 aircraft radio transmits but is not recieving
The RX light should light up when receiving a signal. It may be your squelch setting is too high. Push the VOL knob until it enters the squelch setting, then set the squelch so it just cancels noise. If still not working you could have a wire broken in connector from headset that plugs into the radio.

My new ICOM ID-5100 VHF/UHF/D-Star radio reboot when keying down at high power only. It will work at low and medium. I checked all the power connections and the voltage is reading a steady 13.9 v.
Sure sounds like a "low volts" reboot due to high current draw.
Are you measuring voltage at the radio itself, after any connector, fuse or circuit breaker? The voltage (at the set) should be slightly different between low and medium power tx. Use a good meter to confirm this.
Is the power supply able to supply the current required at high tx power? Is a current limiter operating? A lead-acid battery in parallel with the PSU might be needed at high power.
At high power setting the radio will probably reset faster than a low power input voltage can be measured with a normal meter, so an oscilloscope might be needed to see the power input voltage as it happens (might be very brief).
Could RF be getting back into the power supply? Does it happen on both bands? Is the SWR good? Is the earth good? How long and how thick are the power wires? Is there any filter on the power supply wires (close to the radio)?
If it's new there will be a warranty if it's a fault in the unit.
Good luck :)
