Throwing this out there to see if anyone else has experienced similar issues.
Flying home from Thanksgiving yesterday I started noticing some intermittent comm issues. Another aircraft had to relay a message from center and I could respond to him just fine but could not hear center. This was at 6500 feet over Oklahoma. Should have no problem getting signal at that altitude. A few minutes later I lost the ability to transmit. "TX" was still showing on the radio but it was clear I couldn't be heard. Tried a few other options in the air. Switched headsets, switched to the co-pilot headset, messed with the SQ. Nothing. Landed about an hour from home to troubleshoot as it was getting dark. Could hear the AWOS on the ground just fine, but still couldn't transmit.
This was the first flight with the A20's where I had piped in music through the Bluetooth on the headset. Assuming that wouldn't cause any issues, but its the only thing I've done differently vs. previous flights.
Will be retrieving the airplane today with a handheld radio. Once its home I can start troubleshooting.
Any advice would be appreciated!
