How do you program a frequency directly into the memory of a Yaesu FT-60 and still hear the audio when you have tried but there is no audio?

Answer:

Program Yaesu Ft-60


You may have the right frequency, but there a couple or three encoding schemes for encoding the squelch control on the radio's receive section. You won't be able to hear any audio until you match the encoding used in the transmitting radio. It's another way of adding some channel privacy to those who have general purpose receivers, and it also helps to keep the airwaves from being cluttered by a lot of radio transmissions, allowing the transmitter/receiver to become selective in what they'll receive.

You'll find info in the Yaesu owner's manual on how to set those frequencies and even have the radio do an automatic search to find them. If you don't have a manual, you should be able top go to the Yaesu website and download a copy.
