SVXLINK holds transmit open for a long time #670

Hello,
First note is that you have PTT_HANGTIME=1000 which means it stays on for 1000 Milliseconds, suggest you reduce it to 10 or even 0.
Are you UK based?

System: Raspberry Pi 3B connected to a Baofeng UV-82 (primary radio) ... see below.
Secondary Baofeng UV-82 transmitting to the primary radio on 438.875MHz
Both radios set for CTCSS of 110.9Hz (Transmit AND Receive)
I start svxlink from the console of the RPi.
On the secondary radio I press PTT and then *# and the primary radio starts to transmit the
station identification, and on the console svxlink announces "Tx1: Turning the transmitter ON".
At the end of the station id, svxlink announces "Tx1: Turnng the transmitter OFF" ... but does
NOT stop transmitting for about a full minute.
Is this correct operation, or should the transmitter shut off sooner?

Thanks... I'll try that. I'm in Rochester NY ... USA.
I have another problem if you can help... svxlink only responds to some
(not all) DTMF digits. Any ideas?

Certainly - if you ensure the DEEMPHASIS=0 in the [Rx1] that may help.

I have svxlink (version 19.09.1-3) working, to a point. But, when I elicit a response, it does not stop transmitting (i.e., it holds the PTT key down) for what seems like a long time. Need help, please.
System: Raspberry Pi 3B connected to a Baofeng UV-82 (primary radio) ... see below.
Secondary Baofeng UV-82 transmitting to the primary radio on 438.875MHz
Both radios set for CTCSS of 110.9Hz (Transmit AND Receive)
I start svxlink from the console of the RPi.
On the secondary radio I press PTT and then *# and the primary radio starts to transmit the
station identification, and on the console svxlink announces "Tx1: Turning the transmitter ON".
At the end of the station id, svxlink announces "Tx1: Turnng the transmitter OFF" ... but does
NOT stop transmitting for about a full minute.
Is this correct operation, or should the transmitter shut off sooner?
