Hey there folks,
I have a Kenwood TK-5210 P25 VHF Portable. It is a P25 capable radio but it's able to operate conventionally.
I am trying to use this radio in a conventional system, there's no repeaters or anything special it's just Mobile to Mobile.
I have my frequency setup in the radio and I have fleetsync all configured in the radio properly with the fleet and radio ID's
When i go into my channel I setup in the software (KPG-95D) set the optional signaling to fleetsync and set the PTTID to be Both the radio runs into an issue where it'll transmit but when you release the key it doesnt stop transmitting after it transmits the radio ID at the end of transmission
this happens regardless of what i set the PTTID to
I could have it at the beginning of transmission, end of transmission or both it doesn't matter the radio will not stop transmitting and ties up the channel with no audio or anything as soon as the PTTID is transmitted
Ill give some examples for clarity:
1: If i have the PTTID set to Beginning of Transmission, when i key up on the radio all the other radios start receiving a signal but no audio is coming through and when the key is let go the radio is still transmitting.
2: If i have the PTTID set to End Of Transmission I can key up and talk fine over the channel from this radio and everyone can hear me until i let go of the mic and the PTTID transmits then the same thing occurs, radio is stuck transmitting and ties up the channel.
when this happens it's like the radio freezes up, you can't do nothing with it until you turn it off and back on again.
Otherwise it works fine if I leave PTTID disabled in the code plug. I tried a new codeplug, updated the firmware on it (if i remember correctly) and everything else. I understand this is a P25 radio but that shouldnt affect it from operating in the conventional sense with fleetsync
I attached some screenshots below.
If anyone has any idea what could be causing the radio to do this I would appreciate it.
