Can I leave my radio on the charger constantly? We recommend only leaving the radio in the charger for the amount of time it takes to fully charge the battery. Leaving the radio on charge for a few extra hours will not have an impact. However, leaving the battery to charge for more than a few days at a time can contribute to premature wear on your battery.Why does my radio always make noise and show the word BUSY on the display? In most cases it is necessary to adjust the radio’s squelch (SQL) level correctly. - Tap and release the SQL button once. - Immediately after releasing the SQL button use the Channel Up arrow to increase the SQL level several settings until the noise is gone.When I press the talk button (PTT) my radio’s display will shut off and restart. Why does this happen? The radio will shut down to protect itself. This will happen when the radio is unable to get sufficient “energy” from the power source. - Make sure your battery is fully charged. - Most batteries even when well cared for may still need to be replaced after a few years. - If you have a voltmeter, you can check your battery for DC voltage. If you read 6 volts or below, the battery may have to be replaced. The closer to 0 volts, the worse the condition of your battery.How do I store my radio to help protect my battery life? If you will be storing your radio for extended periods of time, it is recommended to remove the battery from the radio (some models). Leaving the battery attached to the radio will allow the radio to drain the battery slowly over time. Over a long enough period of time this can cause the battery to reach a state of discharge that it cannot recover from.How do I remove the current MMSI number from my newer radio? For radios produced in 2018 and newer we can do this remotely! We would need you to email marinetech@yaesu.com with the following information: Name, Model Number, Serial Number, Current MMSI, and the Request Code. The radios Request Code you will find the radios Reset Menu under the option MMSI. All are needed to provide you a reset password via email. Typically, we can provide you a reset password in about 2 business days.How can I check to see if my radio is receiving correctly? I don’t seem to hear anyone talking. Try switching the radio over to the Weather channel mode. When you are in this mode the USA will disappear and be replaced by WX on your screen. Make sure you check all 10 weather channels to find your local one. If you receive weather loud and clear, this is a good sign your radios receiver is working as the radio only has one receiver. You may be out of range of other boaters, or you may be listening on channels no one is actively using at the time.The radio is asking me to enter my MMSI number. Where do I get this number? The MMSI numbers are a number you will need to register for through one of the registration agencies. For a U.S. registered MMSI number you can reach out to Boat US or United States Power Squadrons. For an MMSI number for international use you will have to register through the FCC.
