No reception?

From a silent speaker to an overloaded SDR: work through the receiving chain.

For analogue voice and SDR reception. Use a known station that is actually active. An empty channel alone does not prove a fault.

CHECK 3

Can you hear noise with squelch open?

Start at a moderate volume. Open squelch or use the monitor function as described in the manual; also select the audio output on an SDR.
