>>You know the SA818 is not a Motorola HT but more like a Baofeng...
Yes..?
?
>>What's your squelch setting?? etc.... You may have something keying it...Could it be a birdie? When it keys up... do you hear dead carrier?? or some type of modulation?
I have it set at 2
?
>>Does it key up with some type of traffic on the node channel -- or is the node channel quiet at the time it keys up and then goes to time out? Does it happen on all nodes or do you listen to just 1?
?
When i connect to a node and my node goes TX it stays keyed till time out.
?
>>Since you've tried SD card and such the SA818 is still a commonality.??
?
I have an idea as to what was causing it, but later confirmed with other test.
?
?
>>Does it do it without the internet connected?
?
Havent tried that, but i dont think it would as connecting to another node is not possible.

>>I'd try another SA818 frequency... Personally I use 440.440. I stay out of garage door opener area of 433mhz..
?
We have a local repeater on that frequency (or very close) and use 436Mhz as I have no garage doors in the area..

?
>>Do you use a PL tone???
?
Yes i use tones in and out.?

after much testing i have found that when I install the broadcastify it causes my SA818 to go into transmit and not go out till the timer shuts it off but next transmision does it again. I am going to have to look into the settings and see what and settings i have wrong as i am still using v2-3-4. but without putting breadcastafy on it, works like normal.
Thanks
