If you can't hear the caller while they can hear you on your Panasonic KX-TGM420AZ phone, consider the following possible causes and solutions:

1. Volume Settings – Ensure the handset volume is turned up. Adjust the volume using the handset controls during a call.

2. Handset Sound Enhancer – This feature is designed to improve sound clarity. If necessary, enable it to enhance audio in areas with interference.

3. Handset Noise Reduction – This feature may affect audio settings. Try disabling it if the caller’s voice is unclear.

4. Mute Function – Check if the handset is muted. If the mute function is activated, unmute it.

5. Interference – Place the base unit in a central location away from electronic devices that may cause interference, such as TVs, radios, or wireless devices.

6. Faulty Handset or Connection – Try using a different handset or testing another call to determine if the issue is with the specific handset.

If the problem persists, resetting the phone or checking for hardware issues may be necessary.

If both lines on your Panasonic KX-TGM420AZ phone are giving engaged signals, try the following:

- Check if other units are in use, as the system may be busy. Try again later.
- Ensure the base unit is properly connected and has power.
- If you use a DSL/ADSL service, make sure a proper filter or splitter is installed between the base unit and the telephone line.
- Reconnect the AC adaptor to the base unit if it was disconnected.
- Reposition the base unit to avoid electrical interference.

If the issue persists, further troubleshooting or service may be required.
