My becker had the same problem. I shipped it off to the factory in FL, they
gave it a complete checkout, and returned it in just a few days. I put it
back in the glider and the problem persisted. I then fixed my bad boom mic
and all was well.

Troubleshoot with different microphones before you pull it and ship it off.

My Becker radio stopped working recently and I'm trying to determine
what to do next. It transmits a carrier tone when the mic is keyed,
but no voice. Any speculation on what is most likely the problem? The
wires that go from the mic to the D connector on the back of the radio
test positive for continuity.

I assume the Becker USA office in Florida is the best place to have it
sent, if necessary?

Our Dittell clone had the same problem. It turned out to be a bad mic.
connection to the terminals on the radio itself. Gave them a little rub
with fine sandpaper, now all is well.
