'Sleeping receiver' sounds the same as a stuck mike ?
Actually, the opposite. In a stuck mike event, the problem is the transmission, whereas a sleeping receiver goes asleep by lack of transmission. I'm told that to revive it only a short transmission is enough. So when suspecting a sleeping transmitter just click your mike..
