My klx135 has the "T" for transmit. It stops transmitting after 35
seconds and displays "stuck mic". I think the led on my intercomm also
turns red when tranmitting - I'll have to check that out.
Most King radios made in the last 20 yrs. have the xmitter cutoff
and some sort of indicator on the panel (can't remember if the NARCOs
do). In addition to that most properly wired radios will provide a
sidetone in the headset. The sidetone alone should be enough to clue
you in.
Whenever I've had a stuck mike, the first thing I noticed was that
the sidetone was still there. This was followed by a glance at the
radio to see that the "TX" indicator was still on in the display. If
you're too distracted to notice those things, I don't think another
light on the panel will help.
