It sounds like SS crap. My only suggesstion is make sure you have a pass cavity on rx to remove any off freq ss noise (this may reduce your irratation not remove it), and if possible move your antenna into a spot that dosent hear this noise at all or as well.

Are you using a ctcss tone on the rx all the time, and if so have you tried to run with carrier squelch to see if the noise will bring up the repeater on its own? If in carrier squelch operation the noise dosen't bring up the repeater, try having a weak signal on the rx, and then shut off the tx doe...

You are correct Mt. Beacon is still 921.200mhz, and I beleive Albany Is 100khz down from that. I was not aware of the interference problem, is there anything that you can point me to about this interference?

I am trying to move two mtx 9000's into the ham bands. I have no trouble with tx on any frequency within the entire ham band. I seem to be having trouble with the receiver locking anywhere below 926.400mhz. Is there any way to tweak the vco to get this radio to receive at 921.000mhz? Ihave looked on...
