I currently have a Retevis RA86 in my truck. I live in mountainous terrain and went to a high point to see if I could reach a repeater(repeater channel 20). After I keyed the mic, I could see bars show up as if Im receiving but not sound, hmmm? I then transmitted a radio check, same thing but then I quickly went to channel 20, I could then hear the repeater tone and someone respond “264 loud and clear”. What am I doing wrong that I’m transmitting on the repeater channel and can only hear on the non repeater channel? Below is my info Im using. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Repeater Info: Frequency: 462.675 MHz Output Tone: 141.3 hz Input Tone: 141.3 hz
Radio Setting: Repeater Channels ON. Repeater Channel 20 TX Code: CTC-23 (141.3) RX Code: CTC-23 (141.3)
Retevis RA86 manual: Channel 20RP: TX Frequency 467.6750, RX Frequency 462.6750
