I picked up an Icom 706 original off of ebay last
week, and the HF and 6m side is working great.
However, the receive is extremely low on 2 meters. It
is putting out the full 10 watts, but I can just
barely hear a couple of the local repeaters, and tried
a SSB QSO with a friend across town and couldn't hear
him. Did a full reset and the problem remains. The
antenna and coax is fine as I am getting the local
repeaters full scale on my Yaesu FT8900.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas as to
what might be wrong with it?
