FT-857D stuck in Fast Tuning mode
Good day.
My FT-857 seems to have become stuck in the fast tuning mode for a few weeks now. Pressing the Power or Fst mic button does not return the radio to normal tuning speed. I don't really want to do a reset if possible. Anyone else ever experienced this behaviour and have a solution? 73 Chris -- 73 Chris Cox, N0UK, G4JEC chrisc@... |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIf you are using the MH-59 Mic just press the Orange button 1 time that will take you out of fast mode on tuning. Make sure your setting for the Mic SEL # 59 is set to RMT when using the MH-59. save your memory from the radio before you attempt a reset and
just try the soft reset before you try the hard one On 4/29/2019 7:59 AM, 'Chris Cox, N0UK'

Check for stuck buttons on the radio and/or on the mic. It happens more than you think and will cause a few or more options to not work. Joe / AJ3O
