[chirp_users] YET ANOTHER ?

[David Carlson]

My son had this issue also and it was the contact in the jack, your mileage may vary. It’s probably not a difficult repair but his was replaced under warranty so we didn’t bother. Out of three UV5R’s that we owned we lost two chargers, one speaker/mic jack and an entire radio that all died in under 18 months.

 New user but had my UV5R working great. Until I started Chirp and adjusted some freqs that worked great. However I noticed it was very quiet. After checking all works good Except no speaker volume.Many years ago I was a 2 way tech for Motorola and learned that when u plug in an ear bud and hear radio great but remove earphone nothing, it is likely a bad earphone jack. PLEASE TELL ME IT IS SOMETHING ELSE!!
 Thanks, Sarge
