I've recently taken over comms management for our volunteer fire department, with a good background aviation radio, but there are always quirks that you have to bump into to know about.
While going through my "serviceable spares", I've come across two DPHs that have very low (barely audible) transmit audio volume - as received on various other handsets. Received audio is loud and clear.
That's not an RF problem as these are FM radios and the low level audio was crystal clear. Problem exists with hand mic and internal mic.
I'm perfectly prepared to believe it's an idiot operator problem (me in this case), so anything stupid I could have missed?
Is there an adjustment for transmit audio level? I have a well equipped audio electronics bench for my retirement gig, but I don't mess with things that I haven't got a service manual or good practical knowledge of as it often ends in tears!
Thanks
