Duane,

I have a fleet of CDM750 radios in service, and have never seen this
symptom.  I assume that when you say "...RICK out of the picture..." you
mean that you have tried keying the radio into a dummy load with the
RMN4025B hand microphone and on a known-good power supply, with nothing
hooked to the rear accessory connector.  If the radio still hangs, then
there is a possibility that a post-PTT signaling mode has been inadvertently
enabled.

These problems sometimes occur in modular repeaters, if double-shielded
cables are not used, when the signal leakage keeps the repeater keyed.  A
poorly-regulated power supply is another suspect.  Of course, there may be
something wrong with the radio itself.  I checked the SRN library, and found
no mention of either the problem or of a mod.  What firmware version is in
the radio?  You can see this on the "Radio Information" page only when you
read the radio, not from an archive file.

73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Motorola CDM750 Mobile Tx Hang Time

I'm working on a CDR500 repeater, setup for unidirectional repeat. I'm
trying to use it in a voted repeater system, but have run into a problem.
The CDM mobile on the transmit side has nearly 1 second of hang time. Even
with the RICK out of the picture, the transmitter is slow to drop. Is there
a parameter in the radio programming that I'm missing? I messed with
debounce and anything else I could find in the software with no luck. Is
this the nature of the beast, or is there a hardware mod I need to do to the
radio?

Thanks in advance!
