The easy answer is to turn off the "roger beep" on your radio. It only has a function on CB radio, and that function is to make more annoying noises. Repeaters with a courtesy tone use it to signal the end of transmission and let others know it's ok to talk. It's a way of saying "over" when you end a transmission.

To separate the repeaters, set up one channel in the radio with one pl tone, and another with the other tone. Only the channel with the correct tone setting will key the repeater.

klutzy me has dropped radio numerous times.  on wood floor, concrete sidewalk, and in the grass.  each time it came up working.  on last sidewalk drop, clip on back flew apart, and battery popped off.  put it back together, and it worked well.  added small amount of jb weld to the spring, and pin ends, no more problems.  have since fired up seven more units, all with the jb weld mod.
 
this is one rugged little beast.  love the rascal.  wifey calls it my "TOY'  cost a hella of a lot less than the last ht's i bought, can't see why she is cmplaining.  maybe i shold not take it to bed with me?
