Full Version: No manual for the B1?

Hello,

I received a new B1. It's my only 2M/70cm radio. The red L.E.D. illuminates when pressing the PTT but none of the local repeaters respond and none are heard at any time. Is there some hidden function to enable the radio?

Hey Jim,

I am brand new to the B1 myself, but I think I have a little help here.  Yes, the "radio" must be enabled to transmit.  On the main RFinder app screen, there is a small power button on the lower right.  A small square with the typical power button icon.  If it is grey, the radio off in an off state.  If red, you are on.
Check to see if your offset is set to -300 (click on the advanced tab to get to it)

Maybe this will be of some help.
