Actually, I'm thinking it may have been nothing at all, other than plain old band conditions. Same user went 50 miles from the repeater, and it worked the way it was suppose to. His xmit into the repeater was normal, but his rx of the repeater was back where is was suppose to be. I've done nothing at all to the system. Will have to watch if over the next few days and see.
