[ICOM] Problem with my 765

[Michael P. Olbrisch]

 Well, you didn't specify if the TX or RX lamps were lit.  Soooo...

Is the manual TX switch engaged?  Is the MIC PTT button stuck or locked on?
Is VOX on with high-gain, sticking it in TX?  

Did somebody crank the RF-gain or Squelch knobs around?

Just my first thoughts.
