Good point. The channel element was simply recrystalled by the folks we bought the MSR-2000 from, and I also am looking hard at it. I did try another channel element I had on hand that was done by Channel Element Headquarters, and it did the same thing. I believe I will send one of them off to ICM and have them do a new one that I KNOW will be right, and see if that makes a difference.
We bought 4 of these repeaters, and I'm about at my wits end with them. I believe my next step while I'm waiting on the new channel element to come from ICM will be to convert one of the other 3, and see what it does. And I believe I may give the Squelch Gate card interface a try, at least for the audio interface. Can't hurt ;o) Thanks for the ideas.
