RADIODDITY GA-510 (1 reply and 10 comments)
when you say "it use to send a voice before i messed about with it" can you expand on that,
did you change menu items? a bit more detail always helps trying to diagnose issues
also can you add a bit more detail around "does not transmit voice when you push ptt sends a carrier no voice" is this using repeaters? of direct on calling channels?
did the radio come pre programmed with any repeaters / channels ?
if not. there is a factory default option looking at the manual, bit of a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but it is the ultimate option if nothing else helps

Hi it worked fine until i started to add in repeaters and frequencys and step and ctcss ect now a full signal is shone when i press ptt but no one can hear me on direct calling or repeaters but they could before i had a go at it. i also changed some menu items. thanks m7wcd
try the factory default option, do one thing at a time, test between each step and then you can back track easier if you find an issue
Hi Peter ok thanks for that i will give it a go. Thank you for your time on this one. William M7WCD
@M7WCD did you get your radio working again?
Hi some what at the moment the voice is so quiet when i transmit i cannot be heard so i am looking for some one to look at it. thanks M7WCD.
i had same issue with a baofeng,
two things showed up on google for quiet audio for the baofeng (prob apply to you as well)
1:- make sure set to wide not narrow FM
2:- make the hole over the mike bigger,
so i got an external mike for about £7 and drilled the little hole over the mic to 3-4 time size and far better, don't mind doing that to a cheap accessory but not the radio :)
also got a colinear antenna (<£50 delivered from moonraker) and connectors to connect it to the baofeng, instead of 5-10 miles, i can now hear the danbury repeater and TX to medway and maidstone from far side of sheppey dropping hints for xmas of a small vhf / uhf rig for xmas as well :)
thanks i will have a go bill m7wcd
all sorted thanks to every oneM7WCD
what was the final answer that fixed your issues? so others can use the same fix
Hi Peter factory reset sorted it out many thanks for your help M7WCD
