I have the same setup in my 8A I have not flown yet
but it works fine on the ground.
After wiring it I'm amazed it worked at all.

Jacob:
Before you chuck the intercom, check your wiring on the connector. The kind
of problem you report is not uncommon with an incorrectly wired connector
or one with a solder bridge. Solder bridges are very easy to get when
wiring those devilish little pins.
My experience with Flitecom intercom in my RV-8 was a very happy one.
