Does anything special have to be done to receive/transmit with a Kenwood TW-4000A ? Does a Duplexer absolutly have to be there to operate it ? Or can it be used with just a 2 meter antenna hooked into the 2 meter coax connecter as a 2 meter rig until I get a duplexer ? I don't know much about dual band radios yet so I just have my 2 meter antenna hooked up to it without a duplexer ... I used an HT to identify on a local repeater , and even though the antenna was hooked up on the 2m coax connecter and the Kenwood was on the same frequency as the HT ... I didn't receive a signal on the Kenwood to show it was receiving . Also , I briefly keyed up with the Kenwood to identify on the same repeater and the Kenwood showed that it had modulation key-up but the HT and the repeater didn't hear it . I'm using a 2 meter J-Pole antenna (the guy that made it said it's good for both 2m/70cm operation) and the repeater that I'm testing on doesn't require a CTCSS tone and I have all the offsets set correctly . Is this radio broke or have I hooked something up wrong ?
