Hi Tom;

On the bottom left of the radio their are four small oblong buttons.

The button furtherest away from the mic connecter, going toward the right is the "MONITOR" button.

Just push it in.

That turns the monitor on.

While the monitor is turned on, if you push the button for one sec. and turn the vfo dial counter clockwise, you can adjust the monitor level.

Let me know how you make out.

We are all here to help one another.

This is why we are a fraternity.

      Anthony:

  How do you effectively access the audio monitoring function on the Icom 746?

  I have had a plain 746 for 7 years now, and have never been able to figure
  out how to do that effectively?

  If you can still remember, please let me know.
