Just a thought.

The MH-133 Mic has an amber that just recently came on the Activity Indicator side. I have spent a couple hours attempting to diagnose the issue. The manual has nothing to offer accept that this specific LED is only suppose to show RED or Green when performing functions and/or PTT. In addition, I now can't do any function controls or DTMF control via the Mic. I have done a full cpu reset. I have not been able to swap mics with another 2820 yet, and that would be the last test with in my abilities to perform before either determining if either the mic is malfunctioning or the transceiver, or both. I have also contacted Icom, whom were very helpful, but unfortunately I found out this problem is new to them too and could not offer any solution accept to send the radio in. Any suggestions?
