After 2 days, I have run out of ideas to test so I am posting in hope of some insight.
I have a GTN-650 Comm 1 and a Skyview Comm 2 with a 5000EX audio panel.
The problem is that I get no voice transmit on either comm radio from the copilot mic. I get no sidetone either. Its like the mic is dead. But the mic works fine on the intercom.
The transmit light lights up on the radios and on the audio panel when I push the PTT button on either side so I know my PTT switch is working, but I am not actually putting out any voice because I cannot hear anything on my handheld radio.
I can transmit from the pilot mic no problem. I can hear my transmissions on my handheld radio. Since the pilot side works, the radios must be wired correctly to the audio panel.
Also the intercom works fine on both pilot and copilot so I know the mic is working and I assume it must be wired correctly for it to work with the intercom.
I have ohmed out the wires from all the jacks and they are correct. I have removed the jacks from the panel to make sure they are not grounded. I have tested the wires for shorts and found none.
I am testing with the same headset on each side and also a different headset on each side, so it is not the headset.
My next step is to contact PS Engineering and see if my audio panel is bad. I don't know what else to test.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.
