XLT2500 Strange behavior
Posted: Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:35 am
I have an XTL2500 that was reported as beeping and cutting out transmissions in the field.
It appears that the radio intermittently beeps and transmits a short burst when the radio sees a carrier on the frequency. It actually seems to look like it is trying to be a repeater of some sort. When it goes into transmit the Yellow channel busy LED extinguishes and then it sits waiting for the next carrier on the channel and it starts transmitting again. Has anyone see this type of behavior.
Background - I have several of these radios in service (fire trucks) analog, conventional operations. Same codeplug in all the radios, but this one is acting up.
Any ideas
