MT2000 outgoing audio problem

Post by magnum »

I have an issue with my radio, was wondering if anyone else has heard of this or has had the same issue.. just bought an mt2000 from another member on the board.. and I have been using it and it seems fine on my end.. however whenever i radio to any other member of my squad... they can not hear me.. they keep telling me that my outgoing audio is too low and I am not coming in... I literally have tried speaking regularly as well as I am speaking on top of the mic and am not sure if there is anything else I can do or should be doing?
Please PM me or post here if you know of anything.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried to use a sp/mic on this radio? If so how was the TX audio then? If not, that is the first thing I would try.

I would run through the service/alignment and see what the adjustments are set to, the deviation and or VCO modulation may be lower than normal.

There should be alignment points for the audio in the alignment section that you can easily access as long as your radio is connected and read.

One other item that may be a cause is a defective mic element, but you can rob one from any Jedi radio and even a Saber and it should work fine.

Try any DOA Circle-M radio's mic, most I'm certain will easily retrofit and function, just recheck the alignment points to ensure proper operation.

Make sure that the "Mic AGC" is disabled. When I had that option used on my MT2000, the mic becomes VERY sensitive to audio and the circuit takes a couple seconds to adjust. but starts off VERY low.

also, check to make sure that channel (or others) is not set for narrow band operation (12.5 kc)
