KX-155 static

[Robert M. Gary]

My patner and I have noticed increase in static in our headets lately.
Its not a squeltch issue, the static is continuous, even during
squeltch. The problem happens regardless of which comm #1 or #2 is
selected. Yesterday my partner turned off our KX-155 and the noise went
away!!! What could cause the KX-155 to put static through the headsets
even when its not the selected radio?

A loose, corroded or poor ground somewhere is my first guess. Not
necessarily in the affected radio.

If your audio panel is like mine, the com1 and com2 buttons just select the
transmitter used, but the receive function can still be heard for both if
the 'Both' button is also selected.
