My RV-6 contains a Garmin GNC 420 and a King KY 97A. Both used to
work properly. Today I could listen to radio communication on both of
them. But when I tried to transmit with the Garmin GNC 420 nobody
acknowledged, and when I tried to do so with the King KY 97A the
reply from the tower was "... read you broken". A friend of mine who
was airborne stated that he also heard me broken. Therefore the cause
could not have been the presence of a hangar between my aircraft and the tower.
I use my headsets regularly in other aircraft and therefore do not
think that the headset was the cause. Would you know what the cause
of this could be, and what I can do to remedy it? Thanks.

Problems transmitting on both radios could be caused from several differen
t things. However, it is likely something that is common, like the audio
panel, or the microphone jack, or a grounding problem. I wouldn't comple
tely rule out the headset either. I would most likely think it is from a
broken or corroded ground in the system. I would take it to an avionics
shop, but you may know the wiring on your aircraft fairly well and can ch
eck the continuity and/or resistance for problems fairly easily.
Have a wonderful day,
Dennis

Forgot to give you a trouble shooting tip. Try the failsafe mode on your
audio panel. If the problem still exists, then it is not likely to be th
e audio panel, if you can transmit fine, you have found the problem. On
my audio panel, fail safe is turning it off and then you can use Comm 1.
Have a wonderful day,
Dennis
