Default Standing Waves (and Impedance)

In the setup menu, you can disable unused modes. Go back in and turn it on.

this frequency on the 706 MKIIG I have. In the FM position, while

it is copyable. The radio shows WFM mode, but it certainly isn't in the

mode.


My original problem was with an original IC-706 which I sold.
I'm now mobile with an IC-706MKII with DSP. But my mode switch
switches from FM to AM to FM ... and never shows WFM at all,
not even when tuned to 88-108 MHz so commercial FM or TV is not
worth listening to. I have a Sony Walkman that does receive VHF
TV audio and my CCRadio+ does also.
