Press and hold the Menu button for 2 seconds and there is a reset function in there which you select using the up down arrow buttons.

Manual is here.

Maybe something needs snipped.

[Tinman]

Sounds like it hasn't been expanded. There's a small wire at the front of the board labelled L503 and exp that needs snipping to put it into expanded mode.

Thanks for the replies, done a re set and it still would not tx, turns out it was a bad patch lead, so its txing 100% now, just need to snip that wire now, so will whip the casings off in a bit, what frequency range will I get?

[prettypolly]

25 to 30 ish

25 to 30 ish

And an ATU or a well tasty wideband twig if you plan on using all of the available frequencies.

[RedBaron]

Wow, how easy is that to wideband, all done now and working very well, just need some good skip now. Thanks all for your help
