W do I turn off squelch control on a digitech DC-1065 marine radio hand held 5 Watt

Radio will not lock onto any incoming calls or transmit coherent speech to other Uniden hand helds on site, no DCS selected no CTCss selected just a raw channel set.

SOURCE: tone squelch

Here is a link to download the user manual for the GP68 http://safemanuals.com/user-guide-instructions-owner-manual/MOTOROLA/GP68%20RADIO%20TRANSMITTER-_E

On your first radio, the one we've been discussing, I believe you have the DPL code set incorrectly. Your radio will go up to the number 126, but this is not the DPL code's number. It is simply a numbering system.

If I read the chart correctly:
DPL 205 equals the number 072.
DPL 023 equals the number 043.

Disclaimer: This numbering system listed in the user guide does not follow any common numbering system. I have other TPL/DPL charts which differ. The above reference is only based on what I have read in the user guide.

I am confident if your radio worked previously at another job site, using other frequencies/PL codes, that your only issue at this time is programming.

As for your unlock issue on the other GP68. Your radio may be in need of repair. The internal button is possibly wornout or has been depressed too far, and is bent on the board beyond the point of functioning.

SOURCE: Motorola T5000 Two Pack 2-Way Radio

Generally a crackling sound coming through a speaker indicated the speaker is damaged (or blown). This can happen due to phyical damage such as dropping; old age' or running the device at full volume most of the time. The T5000 is a non-repairable radio. If less than one year old you may be able to get it replaced under warrranty. If more than one year old, you will need to replace the unit.

Check your Interference Eliminator Code.

SOURCE: Motorla Xtn446 - Kenwood Protalk Dosent Transmit

One or both of your radios have PL ( aka private line, tone code, interference eliminators) activated. Here is a link to a link which contains the XTN446 manual(s). Click on the "support" tab to see the list: http://www.motorola.com/Business/XU-EN/Business+Product+and+Services/Unlicensed+Two+Way+Business+Radios/XTR446_XU-EN

First I would try setting the radio's CODE to off (usually zero) and see if that solves the problem. Otherwise, you'll either need to experiment, or find a user guide for the Kenwood. (You could try posting in the Kenwood forum.)

Best regards.

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.

Yaesu 3100 transmit problems

There are several reasons you may not be able to transmit with the FTM-3100R:

1) Your antenna is not matched to the frequency of use and presents a high SWR. The 3100 protects itself from high SWR by refusing to transmit
2) You have somehow enabled the busy-channel-lockout feature in the setup menu, and you are operating with an open squelch
3) Your DC power supply voltage is too low to support transmit current
4) You are transmitting with too low a power setting and the receiver cannot hear you
5) You are attempting to transmit to a repeater that uses a CTCSS squelch tone, and you do not have the proper squelch tone configured

Both of the LEDs to the left of the display should turn red to indicate you are transmitting. If both LEDs turn red, your problem is likely either #4 or #5.

W do I turn off squelch control on a digitech DC-1065 marine radio hand held 5 Watt

Hi David,

Before I try to give advice, I need more info.

I possess a Digitech DC1065 UHF 80 Channel CB hand held, so there seems to be some confusion here.

I live near Perth, Western Australia.

Firstly, How many channels does your radio have?

If the answer is 80, then what you have is a UHF CB, not a marine band radio.

Marine band is VHF with 87 Channels, in Australia that is, and the default channel is always 16.

Digitech are an Australian radio manufacturer, so you'll get great backup service.

If your radio is not defaulting to Ch16, then I am right about it being a UHF CB.

Therefore, it is useless for VHF anything, let alone Marine band.

I'm almost 100% sure this is a UHF CB in your possession.

Try this to prove me right please.

Reply to me with your Country and nearest city, I'll then be able to find a solution for you real quick, though I believe I already have.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards,
Peter

My uniden ltd 715 receives from my handheld but when I transmit to handheld it just buzzes.

Just to clarify something, you say that your hand-held VHF can receive a clear transmission from the Uniden, now which of the radios are buzzing, the Uniden or the HH?. If it's the hand-held buzzing try transmitting on the low watt on the Uniden, get some distance from the radio, because if the hand-held are to close to the on the Uniden on high watt you will get a buzzing, the signal are overpowering the receiver of the hand-held, try getting the minimum of 30 feet away. Good luck.
