My 246T has been acting strange lately. County fire dispatch has a two-tone fire toneout. Immediately following the first tone, my 246 stops receiving for approximately 4 to 5 seconds. When it returns, the dispatcher has already started the call. The does not happen on the city dispatch which uses a single long toneout. Also, this does not happen on my 396D sitting right next to the 246, so it is not a transmission problem.
The close call is turned off, as is priority and weather alert. This ONLY happens on the county fire frequency tone out, it does not exhibit this problem on any other frequencies. This seems like a firmware issue, however it just started doing this, and the 246 has no toneout feature of any sort. Any ideas?
Tone A varies for different departments
Tone B is 569.1 for all departments
DCS is set to 205
