An update with more information.
I was chasing 3D2EU on 80m this morning and ran into this problem — sub receiver turned on, but the right headphone went dead. I was trying to hook up the Line Out to see if I was getting audio there, when I went ahead and pressed the memory 4 button to send my call again.
Lo and behold, the sub-receiver came alive again in the right headphone again when the rig stopped transmitting.
If anyone has insight into this intermittent problem, I’d appreciate it. Apparently transmitting “fixes” it. I’m also going to see if the line out has audio when the sub receiver is active, but the headset is not.
(3D2EU got really strong just after sunrise, but I didn’t manage to work him on 80m. Next time.)
