Hi,
Cheers Dana, that was it!!! Disabling STE cured it :) I Feel a bit of a fool for not spotting that in the manual :)
I will take the advice about Baofeng being rubbish (they are, I get quite bad pager breakthrough etc) - the only one I can find that seems to fit the bill without going for a shack-in-a-box is a Yeasu FT-25E. But at the moment it's just an experiment with near dummy loads for antennas - I'll see if it can get it all working first.
Cheers again,
Mat.

Hi,
I'm a packet newbie and I've got direwolf working (have to say, the manual is very good :) ). I'm using USB serial PTT control with a Baofeng - PTT is quick at TX, no problems there, but a bit slow releasing so it transmits over some replies.
Have you made sure to disable "Squelch Tail Elimination" on the radio ?
It may be enabled by default.

I've looked at TXTAIL, but it seems that also delays the PTT - Is there a way to continue the carrier for a set time without delaying the PTT. I've looked at direwolf -d o and everything seems ok there.
Cheers,
Mat.
