[ICOM] No Transmit on my IC-208H

The TX died on my IC-208H today as I was returning home from Dayton.  I was on simplex at the time.  I thought it might have overheated, but I stopped at the next exit and the radio's fins were barely warm to the touch.  
It will not transmit on 2m or on 70cm.  I changed the radio to mike cable and no luck.  I did a partial reset and an all reset.  Still no luck. So it seems either a mike PTT  or radio TX problem.  
Do anyone have any thoughts on this problem?  Since this is out of warranty, what is the name of a good repair shop?
