Quick question on Jedi Emergency button

Hi again,

Today I accidentally hit the emergency button on my MT2000, forgetting that unlike my old one this one had't been reprogrammed to control the backlight.

Now my radio is stuck emitting a constant beep and I can't seem to get it to turn off.

Help would be appreciated.

Re: MT2000 Very Low TX Power

Battery was fully charged overnight, and radio was dissasembled and cleaned. Still having the same issue. Compared to another 5W radio, TX power is significantly lower, on my SDR the working 5W radio clips like crazy while the MT2000 hovers at around -15DB, using identical antennas and distances fro...

MT2000 Very Low TX Power

Hello, I come to you with a problem. I recently got an MT2000 VHF model, which works fine in all aspects except for TX power. I've already checked alignment, and it's almost perfect. The unit seems to just have very low output power. Checked against another 5W HT, it is well below what it should be....
