Had an issue yesterday setting up for my flight review - My favorite CFI plugged in his headset and when we tried to talk - poor audio, and when I talked, it started a squeal. Much fussing with squelch and volume ensued. We changed headsets one at a time on both sides - same problem, tried stereo and mono settings, no joy.
We were just about ready to scrub when I hit the PTT button on my stick - audio cleared right up and no more squeal at all. Flight was completed and against his better judgement, I was signed off.
Any ideas why hitting the PTT "fixed" the issue? Have not seen this in 16 years and oodles of hours, but as most of you know Andi wears earplugs and sleeps when we fly.
Thanks for any ideas - I'll call flightcom b/t meetings today to get their take.
