Sounds like your channel element is "running all the time" You may need 
to force jumper your ptt to ground all the time and reconect your 
controllers ptt to the channel element select line so it only runs when 
it needs to.

Other than that about the only thing you could do is place an attenuator 
in line with your remote base receiver.

I am sure Scott can tell you how to do it the right way.
