Hello, I just finished installing the WiFi module on the RCC and no problems locking in to the WiFi router.  However, now the microphone doesn't appear to be working.  The radio is an ICOM ID-880H with the microphone module.  I've rebooted the radio and the microphone buttons light up as before but there appears to be no transmit audio when I PTT.    :o  Hope someone can point me in the right directon.  Thanks!

Hi!

Check the straps inside the RRC...  ;)

Good Luck

Thanks for the response! However, with the ICOM 880H  there are no straps used.  It uses an optional IC to allow the microphone to fully function.   :o

Hi I forgot that this come up with IC-2820 also, it's a hardware issue, simple to solve. Look at the link.
