I can no longer hear my #2 radio. It worked when I left my home base and quit before I got to my destination with no hint at what was to come. I have a KMA20 audio panel and the #2 radio is a KX125. As I started testing, I found I can transmit, but not hear. What is the likelihood that this is just a loose wire on the KMA20? That seems to me to be the most likely culprit. Additional testing I didn't think of doing would be to see if I can hear the Morse code on the Nav radio. I'll test that tomorrow morning. I'm pretty sure both the Nav and Comm audio come through the Comm channel on the KMA20. If I can't hear the code, then I'm almost positive the problem lies with the audio panel and not the radio. When I called a well known and highly regarded avionics shop, they wanted me to pull my radio and send it to them for testing. I balked at that and asked them if they could instead get my whole plane in the shop to diagnose the problem. I'm taking it to them tomorrow and will request that they inspect the KMA20 for a loose wire on pin 15 before they remove my #2 radio. Anything else I'm missing here? Other tests I should run to diagnose? Questions I should ask the shop?
