I bought a TK-270 today at a Hamfest, and have just programmed the local VHF repeaters into it, as well as two MURS channels I use. (Murs channels set at low power to comply with power requirements)
The problem I have is on the local repeaters, I'm being told my audio is very low, and sometimes it won't even break squelch. I've heard this myself by listening on my scanner.
I can also make all of these same repeaters with a 5 Watt Baofeng HT no problem at all. I have tried hooking up the Kenwood to my roll up J-pole with no better results.
Any ideas on what I can do?
I have access to a spectrum analyzer and oscilloscope as well, if that would help in testing.
Thanks,
Will
