When I want to use 2 radios to check, I either place one in another room with the volume up so that I can hear it, or I place it farther away, and use my phone to record a few minutes, giving me time to return to the first radio and send a test message, return and stop the recording.

I forgot to mention that you cannot monitor yourself talking through a repeater with another radio close to you. The transmitting radio's off-frequency and close signal renders the receiver in the monitor radio deaf during the transmissions. Usually what happens is that when you release the PTT button, the receiver is no longer deaf and you hear the repeater's tail drop.
