1- Did you choose the right Tone for both RX & TX?

If you have RF present but not the right tone, the green led should turn on.
One of the side key should be a Momentary "Squelch Off" (By default, it programs like that). Use it when you you see the green led turn on.

If you have the wrong Tone Squelch programmed, the side key will let you hear the repeater to confirm the problem.

2- If it didnt do the trick, Look for a RX/TX frequency mismatch. maybe your RX/TX frequencies are wrong for this channel?

3- If you have checked all the above, maybe your radio have a bad ceramic filter and your unit has lost it's sensibility. (Youll hear only people near to you.)
If it's the case, usualy only one half of the filter goes bad. Try swapping the Bandwith type in programmation. If WIDE, try NARROW or the opposite. If you receive in narrow but not in wide, the filter is bad. In more than 50 radios with Sensitivity problem, I only got one with both Wide/Narrow sides of filter bad.
If you have access to a spectrum analyser, on a "RX Test" you should see ~0.2uV. Anything higher than 0.3uV mean you have a serious RX problem.

Brand new audio technica turntable and we’ve lost the left channel. Its not the reciever, the cd, dvd, works fine.

Use an alternative device connected to the input the turntable usually connects to. If both channels work ok the new turntable is clearly faulty and should be returned under warranty.

I want to replace the tuner to recieve all the channels, is it possible pl suggest

Not really. The best solution is to attach a box (freeview etc) to the scart at the back, set the channel on that and if you want to record just select the AV channel and time etc. PS if it has PDC switch it to off. They don't work anyway with digital services.

I have model number AVR587 Dennon receiver which worked fine with my nonHDTV; however, I just purchased a new HDTV and since the receiver model does not have HDTV the audio goes through the DVR. The...

it sounds as if your using HDMI out of the DVR to the TV which is fine but the better way to do this is to use the Component connections (red, Green, Blue) plus optical or coaxial from the DVR to the reciever and Component connections (red, Green, Blue) out of the reciever to the tv

Looking to build a two way radio system.

You will have to have a vehiclular repeater that is in another band than the mobile so if your portable hand held radios are on UHF then I would advise a VHF high band repeater set up.
It will have to be a cross band setup meaning it will recieve UHF and transmit on VHF and also the opposite direction.
It will have to be programmed with CTCSS or PL of some kind to avoid interference and don't forget it will need to be FCC licensed for those frequencies if it is in the Business band.
Some mobile radios can be wired up through a mini controller and run that way if it is compatible.

Problem Recieving

First try programming the Receiver for Carrier only Squelch,,ie no PL /TPL, then check if it will receive the repeater OK.
If the audio still cuts in and out then (assuming no fault exist) either you mis-programmed the Frequency slightly, or the TPL choice was incorrect.

There is also a possibility of a Bandwidth mis-programming.

Repeaters may have 12.5 KHz or 25KHz channel bandwidth. Basically if you set your radio to 12.5 KHZ and it receives a transmission from a 25Khz Repeater because of the higher repeater TX Deviation the audio on your radios RX will cut in and out and may sound distorted and very loud as well. Your radios TX would sound OK though, but would have lower audio level when heard on the repeater RX. Does your TX work OK through the TPL repeater?

7.1 Reciever vs 5.1 Speakers

Are you gonna miss audio, well that is up to you, this is individual. 7.1 has two additional speakers - center left & right. My personal opinion is that it matters when you have your system installed in large space. Or you can by another two speakers an ad it. Good luck
