We could use a little more info. Which GL is it? Is it transmitting on low power? This could be a broken or dirty power switch, cold solder joint could be possible as well.

That leaves a dirty switch out of the scenario. So it is transmitting? Brand new, personally I wouldn't mess with it, just send it back.
