[Icom] IC-706 MkII FM receive problem possible solution

[icom@mailman.qth.net]

Hello,
   Someone recently put a post out, could transmit on 2 fm, but no
receive.   I passed it by at the time, but had a though on it.   Check
your RF Gain/Squelch setting.  If you have RF gain/Squelch enabled for
FM, and the knob is fully counter-clockwise, you won't have any receive. 
 With the radio set up this way, you have normal operation with the
squelch knob straight up at 12 oclock, moving it clockwise to 3 oclock it
will act as a squelch control, but moving it to the left toward 9 oclock
it acts as a RF gain control.   All the way to the left at 7 oclock the
radio is about dead.    Just a possibility.
