All, The ALE-400 ARQ mode uses a relatively fast transmit / receive turn around. Excessive PTT hang time will block incoming ACKS from the other station and results in an endless loop of TX/RX exchanges without any data passing through.
The Cure: 1. If you have a Signalink interface, make sure the VOX delay is as short as possible using the delay button located on the front panel. 2. If you have a Kenwood TS2000, make sure the VOX delay is off by clicking FUNCTION >KEY on the front panel. Many rigs use VOX delay so please change this setting to read OFF. Thanks, Tony -K2MO
