| Subject: | Icom A210 Squelch Adjustment |
My Icom A210 comm radio won't close its squelch reliably when cold; it's OK when
it's warm. I have already tightened the squelch as much as possible using the
front panel controls. The service manual has a procedure to adjust the AM
squelch internally (service manual section 4-4) but requires the use of Icom's
"CS-A210 ADJ" software (service manual section 4-1).
And that's the rub.
Has anyone here been successful in obtaining this software? Since May 4 I have
been calling various Icom departments (Technical Support, Customer Support,
Inside Sales, etc.) and each refers me to the other until they finally decided
to refer me to a distributor since I am not a dealer, simply an end user. Icon
gave me a referral to their largest aviation distributor, EDMO but EDMO does not
have it in their system and has been waiting (for more than two days) for a call
back from Icon. Argh!
So I repeat: has anyone here been successful in obtaining this software? And
how did you do it?
Note that Icom sells a similarly-named but different and not useful product
(CS-A210 Programming Software). Also please note that I do not wish to send my
radio to Icom and suffer the downtime as well as the aggravation of their lousy
ribbon cable to the front panel.
Thanks,
Joe
