Normally yes, but the keying of the PTT fixing the problem sound like a

It only takes a minute to check it. Simply connect the antenna directly to
the 564, without the amp.
If he has not amp, then obviously that's not the problem - hi.
Cheers

But the s-meter should follow the audio if it's a relay issue, ja?
