Default Becker AR4201 mic question

I have an AR4201 that I have always used with a dynamic boom mic and I swapped it with an AR4201 wired for a standard mic in another glider. After sliding it in the box it receives fine and the mic keys the radio, but I'm not getting any transmit audio. Any ideas what adjustments or software instructions to change? Anyone else seen this problem?


Sounds like you put the radio that was in the ship with a standard mic into your ship that has a dynamic, boom mic?

Did you move just the radio, or the wire harness as well? If you just moved the radio, and not the wire harness (you say you slipped it in the box, so this implies to me that you just did a radio move, nothing else), then I would think there is a problem with the microphone. Did you change radios to see if it was a radio problem or a mic problem? Maybe your dynamic boom mic element has died. I have heard of this happening before.
