Spotty PTT operation

Recommended Posts

Just bought this a couple weeks ago and am really loving it. I'm having an intermittent problem, though, with PTT, and I'm wondering if there's a solution.

Sometimes I'll hit the PTT button and say something. The PTT button changes color as it usually does when it's listening. But when I finish, it doesn't echo what I said in the text box like it usually does, and doesn't respond as it should. If I then repeat myself, it will work fine.

I don't think it's that I'm using the wrong commands, because I can repeat what I said verbatim the second time and it will work. And when I do use the wrong commands, it will still echo what I said to the text box.

Any idea why it sometimes seems to listen, but not hear me?

Sounds like it's not hearing what you say.  Since it's intermittent, it is likely due to the mic not being positioned so your voice is picked up….but it could be you need to increase the microphone sensitivity/volume so you'll be heard even when you're not speaking exactly into the perfect mic position.

Well I am on Windows 10, and it gives me lots of problems with audio, including mics, so that's certainly plausible. I'll play with it some more. Thanks!

I have the same problem but I believe I am just starting to talk too soon.  If I wait a second and then start works much better.  I think there is a pause setting that will delay p2a listening that might help.  I haven't tried it.
