Someone can talk on the 3004544 conference but anyone listening on 46690 and hear them, but when they reply back no audio ever makes it to 46690.

It shows up on allmon2 and echolink as connected and if you talk RF everyone on the echolink network can hear you, but when they talk back no audio comes through to 46648 or to the Yaesu that’s connected to it and it doesn’t turn green on allmon2. If I disconnect the echolink node and connect it again it fixes the no audio until it happens again. I’ve tried with a normal connect and a permanent connect and the same thing happens using both. It may be 30 minutes or 3 days before it happens again.
