Copy that. I’ll try that.

Hello everyone. I own both a Rocky Talkie 5W and Midland GXT67 Pro GMRS radio. Up until recently I have not had a need to utilize repeater use, however a group of mine are headed to a camping/concert event in a couple of weeks and the local repeater owner has advertised that attendees are welcome to use it. The location is about 2 hours from where I live. I have both radios on the repeater channel (22). I also have the appropriate tone (CTCSS) in and confirmed it with the owner as well as found the same on myGMRS.com. Where I am confused is both radios, when I key each of them up, I seem to ping some nearby GMRS repeater as there’s a few in my area. I am getting a courtesy tone back. But the radios are not communicating with one another. Example: I key up the Midland and broadcast a “Test 1, 2, 3” but I do not hear that on the Rocky but I DO get the courtesy tone response on the Rocky sometimes. The same applies when I use the opposite radio. Am I miss I something here? Thanks for any help you can provide!
