I just got the UV25x4 as an 'armchair' radio and programmed it for the most local repeaters. Performance seems fine on 2m, but it's cutting in and out on the local 220 repeaters. Have checked this against my primary 220 radio which shows no problems with squelch, CTCSS, etc.
Have tried changing bandwidth, tone squelch and open squelch to no avail and have disabled simultaneous monitoring. The situation sounds like it's with the mechanical relay associated with the 220 band. Is there some default menu item I could've missed to cause this? I'm not aware of a 'priority' channel or anything like that.
