Jim,

My first look at the mail for over a week, between moving and having to do some work out in

NM...

Yes, regarding the brand, I had forgot the correct manufacturers name.

I will check those settings, I do not have the radio with me at the moment, as soon as I get

back home and get that mess under control I will take a look at it. Where I notice it is when

I hit the PTT button seems to take quite a bit of time to get up to speed TX wise.

It is a BTech UV-5X3. It is not manufactured by Baofeng. That is why
you won't find the UV-5X3 listed under the drop-down Vendor list for
Baofeng. The Vendor BTECH must be selected to find the UV-5X3.

Have you set menu 35 (STE) and menu 36 (RP-STE) to OFF? In CHIRP it would be...

Settings -> Basic Settings -> Squelch Tail Eliminate (HT to HT):
{untick this setting}
Settings -> Basic Settings -> Squelch Tail Eliminate (repeater):
{change this setting to Off)
