I got my connex 4800 dxl a few weeks ago from copper and everything was working good until a few days ago.For some reason when i first turn my radio on the roger beep is very week.Its not the same pitch its a lower pitch and very very week can barley hear it.but it seems once the radio is warmed up for about half hour or more its ok.does anyone know why it would do this?

Cold solder joint? ARe you describing the beep from what you hear in talkback or is your radio buds conplaining? Good thing you bought from Copper for the warranty! WoW! Never used mine so maybe I better check it!

Well good luck with the roger beep. The radios SWR circuit calibrates itself. No need to manually do it. Just push the SWR button and key the mic, there you go!
