I'm afraid one our 1M bases may have a significant issue. Last week it had one job where it failed to connect and start the base using the internal radio, so the crew using it just set up the external 35w and it started and worked fine. The next time they took it out the internal worked fine and has for a few days so we hoped it was just “one of those things”.
Today, they called me and neither radio would connect and/or start the base. I connected into it through Rams an did all I could from there but saw nothing out of the ordinary so I drove to our other office to visually see what was up. Going to connect works fine. Bluetooth finds the base and connects and shows internal radio, version number, etc. At this time the radio light on the 1M is red, but as soon as I go to set base it goes off completely and never comes back on.
We then turned everything off and hooked up the external radio and turned 1M back on. The Bluetooth turned green on the 1M so it appeared to find the external but when I turned on the LS and hit uhf config it doesn’t even find the external anymore.
To eliminate other parts, we have more than one system so I tried another LS with the “bad” 1M and got same result - nothing.
I then used the LS from the system with the “bad” 1M and a different 1M and it connected, started and got an ok-receiving-ok immediately.
Anyone have any idea what part in the 1M could have failed or what could be causing this
