Wouxun KG-Q10H - Headset PTT transmitting in the wrong area

[wagros]

Hello, friends.

When I connect a headset to the radio in dual-channel mode, pressing the PTT transmits on the wrong channel. Instead of transmitting on the selected channel, it transmits on the other channel.

Is this normal, a defect in the radio, or did I make a configuration error? Note that neither of the channels is marked as a favorite.

Please see the examples below for clarity.





Thank you in advance for your help.

1. Are you using a Wouxun headset, and if so, it it one that's designed to be compatible with your model radio?
2. Is there a config option either via radio menu or via software for the way the active XMIT bank is selected?

1. There is no headset listed as an accessory for this model on the manufacturer's website. I have 5 different headphone models, tested them all, and the problem persists.

2. I did not find this option in the configuration menu. (see image below)

Can you disable the PPT XMIT function?

Can you disable the PPT XMIT function?

I don't know what this is, nor where this option exists in the CPS.

My bad. I meant to say, can you disable the "B" PTT (Push To Talk) XMIT (transmit) function button?
It sounds like the headset is somehow causing a shift from "A" to "B" PTT functions.

And to clarify, "headset" to me means an over the head rig with earphone(s) and a boom microphone. Do you have just a plain speaker/microphone to try?

I understand. Don’t worry, because the terms you are using are actually correct. However, due to my inexperience and the fact that my native language is different, some terms end up being confusing. Translators sometimes betray us, as with the word "headset." Haha!

Even if there is an option to disable transmission in area “B,” I prefer not to do that because I need to listen on both channels and respond promptly to both.

Regarding the "headset," below are images of the ones I tested.



If this issue cannot be resolved, I will have to get used to the fact that the transmission will occur on the non-selected channel.

I solved the problem!

I'll post it here to help anyone who might make the same mistake as I did. 😄

In CPS, under the "Key Settings" tab, I changed the "PTT1" assignment to "SECONDARY" and left "PTT2" as "MAIN." This made the headset PTT always activate the secondary channel that was programmed in "PTT1."

I hope my experience can be useful to someone.

Thanks to my colleague @ladn for trying to help me.

Best regards.

Glad it worked out. I suspected it may have been something in the CPS, but documentation on CCR software is pretty sparse.
