It's also worth laying some suspicion in the direction of the carbon granule transmitter. If the granules are no longer making good contact with one another, the resistance may be too high to make a loop. If you take out the inset and give it a firm rap, there is just a possibility of effecting some improvement if it's not too far gone.

You make no mention of outgoing calls from the 332. What results do you get attempting this?
