Steve, I checked the menus and settings that you suggested and everything
looked okay.  I do think I may have been on split though.  So that could
have been the problem.  Any way since I reset the radio it seems to be
working for right now.  So far I really like this radio.  There just is a
big learning curve.  So I'm sure you will be hearing from me a lot.       

73, Gary

Gary,

Don't know how much playing you did, but here are a couple suggestions.

If you played around in the menus make sure you didn't set Menu 54 to On;
that 
is the TX Inhibit.

Second, make sure you don't have it on some kind of split frequency.  Press 
VFO a = b.

Third, did you turn on the sub-receiver and ythen press the right-arrow?
That 
would have switched control to your VHF sub-transceiver.  Two solutions to 
this one: press left arrow to return control to the primary; or, press in
the 
lower right knob to turn the sub-transceiver off.

Steve, K8SP

Okay, the rig came in the other day and I had a sighted friend help me set
it up and he showed me enough to get me started on HF and everything worked
great.  So I started exploring which buttons did what.  Now I can't get the
rig to tune on any band.  The receiver seems to be working fine, it just
won't tune.  I tried pressing the A=B button as I turned the radio on to do
a complete reset but that didn't appear to do anything.  Is there another
way to reset the radio?  Any help would be much appreciated.
