I've been trying to figure this out and obviously I'm stumped because I'm here asking for a little bit of insight....
I've got several radios all programed and working on my licensed frequencies using my licensed copy of the CPS. Just getting that out of the way. So before I added a repeater to the mix everything was operating fine. When I got the repeater and got the duplexer re-tuned I put it in the mix. So now when I try to transmit through the repeater my radios will key up like they're supposed to, but only in very close proximity to the repeater. Like within 200 yards. Once I'm beyond that the channel "bonks" me out... IE I get busy channel tone. If I enable talkaround, back to normal operation.... So my question is even if I'm outside the range of the repeater (which I definitely shouldn't be) shouldn't my radio still key up and transmit?
My admit criteria is set for always, and everything else is as open as I can make it.
Any insight into this matter would be greatly appreciated.
