| Hello,
I havent used my rig for around a year. Having turned it on today, none of the buttons are working, including the mic key. I can turn the rotary channel selector and that changes channel and band at the same time. It is receiving ok as I've heard people while changing channels.
Any ideas please? | |

| You haven't accidentally pressed the lock key, looking at the manual it is along press of the channel19/9 key. | |

Nope, tried that that I'm afraid. | |

| Might be worth working all the knobs and buttons a few times, something could be stuck in an “on” position and pressing a few times could free it. | |

| Tried that too. If that was the case, I doubt it would affect the mic key?? | |

| My last shot is try it without the mic to rule it out as a problem. | |

| Another thought, perhaps one of the connectors inside has jostled loose. It might be worth opening her up and checking the cables to the front panel etc. | |
