Paul, You have put your finger on the major difference between modern Motorola and Kenwood radios. Kenwood chose to equip their products to process only the 180-degree phase shift reverse-burst squelch tail elimination scheme, while Motorola Professional Series radios can be programmed for either 180-degree or 120-degree phase shift. TIA-603-C, the international standard for land-mobile radio performance, recognizes both reverse schemes as equally viable. Kenwood may recapture some market share, once their radios are equipped to encode and decode reverse burst in either scheme.

My only issue is that I use Motorola Portables and keep getting a squelch crash. What have you guys setting the setting for the reverse burst at to get rid of the squelch crash? Thanks! Paul R.
