XG2 not working on 3mhz or 14mhz

[Jack Satterfield]

Just tried my XG2 on a new radio, it's only working on 7.040

Tried on another radio to confirm it's the XG2, battery is good. Any
suggestions to check why it's not working on all three freqs.

Jack,

The only things that are changed between bands are the crystals and the
switch position.
If you do not have bad switch contacts (check with an ohmmeter), then
you have bad crystals - try resoldering them.
