Does your radio have a RX tone set and is it correct? Try disabling RX tone (if set) and check to see if you are getting a audible kerchunk. Quote
JamesBrox Posted 6 hours ago Author Report Posted 6 hours ago Thanks Mark for your intellect. The TX/RX PL is set right according to the repeater info on maps. I'll try disabling the RX tone and see if there's any difference. Quote
