[ICOM] 706MKIIG No CW Output

[JV]

     I haven't done a reset. Bert said he did this before shipping and it
was empty. The settings indicate no optional filters. Next time I go over, I
am going to do a reset anyway. Got nothing to loose at this point, hi hi.

Has anyone suggested doing a reset on the radio? Was a CW filter in the
radio and possibly taken out before sale? In that case the rig still thinks
it's there and I'm not sure what would happen then. A reset would cure that
if it is the problem. This would also return the rig to initial power output
settings.
