I can drive through the area tomorrow morning if it still transmitting.
btw it seems that the repeater is still working though unless something
else is also transmitting on the repeater's output frequency. I can also
hear a cell phone vibrator sound occasionally.

Upon further investigation, the stuck mic appears to be near the
Memorial and Eldridge area.
If anyone knows any one near that area, have them check their radios
for a stuck mic.

After several people checking the area, it appears the stuck mic is in
an area center near Memorial and Highway 6.

*Subject:* [BVARC] 146.940 Repeater Problems and Repeater Operation
Currently the repeater is turned off due to a stuck mic. The problem
started just before noon and the Stir Crazy NET and is still happening
after two hours.
It appears the offender is in the SW Houston area somewhere between
Westpark and Interstate 10, and between Interstate 610 and Highway 6
area.
It does appear to be a base station since there is no mobile
fluttering and there has been a telephone heard in the background
several times.
If anyone knows of somebody in that area that has base station, please
give them a call and have them check their microphone.
Over the past couple of weeks, stuck microphones have happened several
times.
The is a great example of why everyone should set the time-out-timers
on their radios to prevent this from happening.
Hopefully this will clear up soon.
