I have no idea if this is the correct group in which to post my
problem, but I really hope that someone can point me in the right direction or give me some tips. I have two model # x32x-2 wris****ch 2-way radios (they just say "made in china", there is no manufacturer listed; the box says "2-Way FRS/GMRS Wris****ch Radio") that I got from the Marlboro catalog this year and the other day one of them suddenly stopped receiving. The one radio works fine, you can talk and listen, but with the one that is problematic, you can talk into it and be heard on the good radio, you just can't hear anything on the bad one, like if I talk into the good one, nothing comes out of the bad one. The radios each have a screen that says "Tx" when it's ready for you to talk and "Rx" when it's ready for you to listen and on the bad one, the "Rx" doesn't even appear on the screen now at all, as if the listening/receiving function just suddenly stopped working. Yes, both radios are set to the same channel (frequency) and there are no privacy codes set on either of them, and my boyfriend and I recently moved and I can't find my folder where I keep all of my instruction manuals so I can't even look for troubleshooting tips in the booklet until I find it and believe me, I've been looking all over the place where I thought it would be and I'm mystified. I'm not a person who misplaces things very often, so I can't understand where the heck that booklet got to...Marlboro, not being the manufacturer, won't be able to tell me squat, my only choice at this point if I can't figure out what's wrong and fix it, is to have them replaced by Marlboro before my item return window closes...I think I have 12 weeks from when I received them (end of October) to return them for replacement. The funny thing is, this is the first year I've actually received my Marlboro order relatively quickly and it's been screwed up...we received a keychain instead of a Zippo at first, then I noticed the cooler bag I ordered has a broken zipper so I have to return that, now the walkie talkie isn't working so I might as well return that with the darn cooler bag...and if they think I'm paying the postage to ship those items back, they're crazy...they already charged me like $24.00 in the first place to send my order the first time and I know my stuff didn't weigh that much, I used to ship stuff at my last job, it would have to weigh a LOT to cost that much. Sorry, I realize this is a bit off-topic and that my message is really long, but I needed to vent about this and I really would like some advice on my walkie talkies! Thanks to anyone who replies although I doubt I'll even get one at this point, that's the story of my life, Murphy's Law (anything that can go wrong, will). |
