Try transmitting at low or medium power. That’s usually plenty for most line of sight repeaters.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have the battery in the charger and am charging some NiMH AA. I will try them in the adapter battery tray.

I haven't used my FT60 for quite a while. After reading the latest post I dug it, and that's when I started losing my mind too.
When I press the PTT switch to transmit the radio acts like it is powering on: screen goes blank; radio "beeps;" it lights and displays 7.4V; then it displays the frequency (it's defaulting to 430.000).
I tried the reset: Off > MONI/on > dial ALLRST > press FW and all I get is the same as above.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
