Cobra L16000 One radio won't transmit or receive the other one is fine. The one with the problem has a R X on it and the other one doesn't. Thanks!

SOURCE: transmitting

Hello lstimpson,

You may have the CTCSS privacy code function enabled on one radio and not on the other. This function keeps your radio's received muted unless it receives a signal from another radio using the same privacy code. If you have Privacy Codes set for radio A but not for radio B you will still be able to transmit from A to B but when you transmit on radio B your signal will not be heard on radio A.

Make sure that both radios are set to the same privacy code or that the function is turned off on both radios.

Best Regards,
Ken

• A Cobra 3850wx Radio requires 4x600mAh NiMH 1.2V AAA Part # GA-3ANH rechargeable batteries.
• Not just any AAA rechargeable battery will charge in the unit.
• All will work in the radio but not all will charge inside the radio. It has to be a specific battery.
• This is an example of what you need. GA-3ANH batteries which will charge inside your radio. http://www.tomsawyer2wayradios.com/catalog/item/3823249/5076887.htm
