...and out of those 80%, most don't receive well because of
self-desense. The others are usually deaf simply because the carrier
squelch is set too tight. I've even heard some CTCSS-access systems with
tight carrier squelch. I guess the owners can't stand hearing any noise &
would rather cut you off if your signal dropped below 20 dB quieting.
