I am using an LPE-200 with the Digital Voice Conversion Method. At random times, the LPE stops passing clear voice. Switching the LPE off and back on gets it working again.
When the problem occurs, the LPE remains powered up and the radio display does not change. Occasionally some data noise is heard through the speaker, but it is mostly silent.
The mean time before failure can be anywhere from a few minutes to several hours.
The LPE does not appear to be getting warm. I've tried adjusting the RF signal generator's output from full to maximum attentuation. I've tried different power supplies.
Finally, I have substituted the LPE with another one, and the same problem occurs. Both LPEs worked flawlessly on their own (outside of the DVCM), happily trunking for hours at a time.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue, or does anyone have suggestions as to what might be causing this?
