Hi Joe,
 
There is only crackle when receiving a signal, never on the repeater tail.
 
Might help to mention that I can listen directly to the receiver audio at the repeater and hear the following:
 
Receiver weak signal - Xmtr turned on - Crackle
Receiver weak signal - Xmtr turned off - No crackle
Receiver no signal (squelched) - Xmtr turned on - No crackle
Receiver no signal (squelched) - Xmtr turned off - No crackle

Do you hear the crackle during the entire repeater tail?  Or is it just
when the receiver COS is open?  What I am getting at is, is the receiver
hearing the crackling noise or is it something in the transmitter or PA
breaking down?  Just want to verify that it is antenna noise.
