As suggested I've also turned VOX off and RF down to 0 per cent.

Hi I've just bought this transceiver but must admit to being abit lost
despite reading the manual. Do I have to plug in or ground the two pronged
connector when using it at home as a base station. I haven't got my license
yet and infact haven't even turned it on. At the moment I have a Wellbrook
connected to antenna one port and want to use it as a receiver until I have
my license and know what I'm doing. Has anyone got any advice on what not
to touch in order to ensure I don't accidentally transmit. I don't want to
brick it and so haven't connected the microphone but is there another way I
could accidentally transmit. I know these questions are basic but please
bear with me I am completely ignorant and although the manual is very good
I have absolutely no personal starting grid when it comes to transceivers.
Cheers.
