I upgraded software, and now I have no transmit audio. Can anybody help me? When the mic is keyed, it shows I'm in transmit mode, but have no audio. Also when I hit the tuner, and doesn't show anything on the meter. I'm not sure what's going on. I have a Flex 6400, with a Maestro. I'm not using PC software.

    Hi Tim. As part of the upgrade process, did you shut off the Flex, then remove power? This is an often missed step. 73, Len, KD0RC

    So, really no RF. Can you check your TX band settings? Could be RF and Tune pwr at zero or PTT inhibit set. Also check RF Power and Tune Power sliders to be sure they are not zero. Len

    Do a factory reset, not just a power off. save you profiles first.

    I do have a mic that plugs into the back of the radio, and I tried that with no audio either. It does key the radio, but no audio just like the Maestro mic.

    The mic profile is selecting a particular mic Jack, like mic 2. Make sure mic is plugged into the right Jack. Check your mic profile (press the mic gain knob, you select a different jack and/ or mic profile) and the mic Jack in back.

    Press and hold the power button on the radio (it will turn white to indicate a reset).  I don't think there is a corresponding function on the Maestro itself.

    One of the pictures above shows I'm on Maestro Mic 2 which is what the mic is plugged into.

    After the reset, I do have audio on transmit, I'm being told I'm in and out. I probably need to try a another band.
