Narrative:

During takeoff, taxi, and climb portions of flight, we had a stuck microphone on the #1 communication radio. After takeoff from the uncontrolled field, we contacted the ZNY controller and checked on the frequency. We believe this is when we had the stuck microphone. During a subsequent conversation between crew members, profanity was used.
