Re: icom f20 Sticky Problem
You could try playing with the squelch, or you could get your scanner and see if you can hear them on that?

Maybe you have CTCSS set on Receive, and they don't.
Have you tried pressing the Monitor button (on the side), when they are talking?
Do you know what your programmable buttons (P0, P1, P2, P3) are programmed for?
