Make sure you have the correct antenna selected, or you will not hear 
signals. If you have the KXV3 you can also select a separate receive 
antenna, so that's another thing to check.

For transmitting, you must have VOX on to send CW. Also make sure the TX 
icon isn't flashing -- that could mean that you are in Test Mode.
