Here is one for you guru's and BMOC problem solvers. Must admit there are a lot of good ones in this group. A 2 meter repeater 15 miles away using a Mastr2 PLL exciter emits a carrier drop pulse of about500 ms in duration on a frequency 225 khz down from the repeaters xmit freq.

One problem I saw on a converted Heathkit HW-202 repeater (not a radio I recommend - TX OK but RX horrible) was a leaky feedthru cap on the TX box that partially pulled PTT low (active). This would cause the TX to shift up several kHz every time the controller's PTT went inactive for a second
