Since this is a half duplex radio, make sure you have duplex=1 in 
rpt.conf _and_ in usbradio.conf you have duplex = 0.

If usbradio has duplex = 1 then it thinks you have a full duplex radio.
You need to tell usbradio it is half duplex.

By default app-Rpt defaults to full duplex settings in both usbradio and 
in rpt conf.
Actually when duplex = X is not stated in then it is automatically in 
full duplex mode in rpt conf.
