Now that you have done the resets, do all of the buttons now work?

Are both main and sub- receiver dead?

Does the radio operate in transmit?

After switching the RTX  on, it started behaving in a strange way: both VFO seems ok but no band reception; only the buttons around the display are active, the others don't  work; no transmission. I performed a Master Reset and then a Ram Clear (followed by a master reset). Now it switch on, the volume goes up an down, some noise comes out from the speaker, but the 20m are silent, only electronic noise.
