I'm looking for some help with my newly acquired Kenwood TK-890H. I am using the full-function remote head and external speaker. I have been able to program it with all my wanted frequencies and I'm able to transmit, but I can't get it to receive. The seller claims it was fully tested and in working condition and I have no reason to doubt him.
symptoms: 1-no receive, 2-busy light (green light) is always on, 3- no sound out of the speaker.
I have enabled the SP function for the speaker, but still nothing. I suspect that there is something in the software that needs to be configured differently.
I was/am very excited to use this radio as a base station at my home, but I might be in over my head. I have a couple TK-880's and a NX-800 that I was able to program and I am using them without issue. This one is more of a challenge. I do have a copy of the instruction and service manuals.
Any help is appreciated.
