Larry,

No it was the PDF version of the manual. I don't 
remember a DTMF memory causing the unit not to receive.
Some units do have a DTMF squelch but the IC-207 
does not as far as I remember and read.
Did you try hitting the Function and " D " on the 
mic, maybe you muted the RX audio by accident?
Have you tried an external speaker? Might be a 
faulty external speaker jack. Try installing a 
male plug a few times to see it that restores RX audio.
I have glanced through the IC-207 manual and 
about the only other suggestion I have is a full cpu reset.
