This occurred during my lunch break. Since then I found the 2m & 70cm
bands OK in all modes. 6m is working, but only fraction of the power.
The power output decreases (in all modes) as the freq goes down to only
a few watts at 15m.
Very annoying.

I bought a 706 abt 3 months ago, and used it till I removed it from the
vehicle before christmas. It was on a shelf and not used until today
when I wanted to use it again. I find that all appears to be working,
except that I get no bar graph reading (on 40 & 20) when I speak!
I suspect I have done something wrong, but dunno where to look. I'm
using standard mic, and the ptt and up-down buttons work. Beats me.
I know it's under waranty, but I recently enquired about accessories for
it from the people I bought it from (Melb. Aust.) via email. No reply.
Any ideas folks?
