John:

Didn't one of the after market program chips, like the Giehl chip have 
some sort of "transmit indicator" on the display. Look inside and see if 
you have the original Ten Tec chip.

If there is a delay going from transmit back to receive, make sure that 
the QSK pushbutton is set for "fast" and not "slow".

> hi everyone, i just picked up a paragon I - the guy i purchased it from said it had a PLL unlock error, but that the radio worked - so far i get no error and the radio receives wonderfully. i just wired up my shure 444d mic to be used with this radio and when i key the mic a funny symbol next to the freq. display comes on - it looks like an E turned on its back with three lines (rays?) coming out of the bottom of the E - is this the PLL error message? also after keying the mic there is a slight delay before returning to receive mode? when the radio returns to receive mode the symbol goes away - i was thinking i have the mic wired wrong - but it seems to be keying the radio - has anyone ever seen this - there is no reference to this in the paragon manual. thanks again for all your time - i have learned a great deal about ten tecs here and i appreciate all the expert commentary.
