<p dir="ltr">Sounds like 120hz from a bad power supply or an HT in a charger. Changing the pl away from 123.0 would eliminate the repeater keying but it still would be present on the input.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Over my 30 plus years of repeater building for commercial, public service and amateur service I've seen lots of things causing this. TV preamps long forgotten in attics killing VHF repeater inputs and old unstable garage door opener receivers wiping out a large segment of 455-458mhz miles from the repeater. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Listen on the input from various parts of the coverage area and see if you can hear it. Start at the site and move away. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Good luck!</p>
