 My King KT-76A  transponder has a stuck "Ident" button. 
 It stuck when activated for ATC on the last flight and the button appears to 
 have colapsed sideways underneath the cover panel. It is no longer visible 
 in the opening now. ATC says the unit indicates an "Indent" signal 
 presently. 
 Does this require an avionics shop to repair or could it be a simple matter 
 such as removing the unit, then remove the cover plate and look for a 
 colapsed return spring? 
 Thanks, 
 Tom 
 
When I read a message like this it scares me to think you're sharing IFR 
airspace.  Hopefully, it's in not in conjested airspace.
