It's possible. It should go back to it's original state when you change
memory channels or hit the memory button, but if it was accidentally
reprogrammed in all the button pushing, it could stay that way. I would say
it's transmitting somewhere, unless something else is going on. If it has to
do with the button pushing, it must be transmitting somewhere.
