Vern,

One question.  What do you mean "hard time kicking into transmit mode"???

Are you refering to having to give strong signal into the repeater or long key 
into the repeater to bring up???

The RC-1000V has a anti-kerchunk filter that requires a time delay before it 
keys the repeater.  This can be turned on and off.

Might be more specific on the problem.
