Default GE 40 Channel Handheld CB display not working?

I just got a GE 40 Channel Handheld CB model 3-5980 and i think there
is a problem with the display. The only time the display seams to be on
is when i channel up/down or when something is transmitting. Is this
normal or should it be on all the time?
Thanks

That is normal with that model. I used to have a similar GE handheld,
they're utter pieces of crap. You *might* get $5 off someone desperate for
a handheld radio at the truck stop for your GE.

The display should also illuminate when it is NOT squelching. So during
transmit and receive it should light up.
