Do you have external power hooked up? That is an internal battery option. If the external power source is hooked up when there are no icons you have five watts.

The manual says "If you set the power to 5 watts, the power level icon is the same as for 2.5 watt operation, but at 5 watts the icon is blinking." My 2.5 icon does not blink. Right now the icon looks like "L)))" but no blinking. When I press A, I can change the icon from L))) to L)), to L), then a blank icon screen and then back to L))) but no blinking. Any ideas pse?
