Re: X5105 Switch on Problem

Re: X5105 CW Mode Transmit Intermittent

Re: X5105 ACC Port issues ?

Re: X5105 ACC Port issues ?
Thanks to DougVL and riushr for the cable trimming advice.? Seems to have done the trick. Took a little patience with a utility knife and a magnifier but it works now.

Re: X5105 ACC Port issues ?
Yes it is a known issue on the 5105. I trimmed the plastic around the end of the connector and that solved the issue. Im using an XGG.comms interface. Sent from my POS LG phone. Real radios glow
