I observed on several occasions over the past week or so, as indicated by whether or not I could sustain a QSO and whether or not I heard the squelch tail and beep, not being able to key .375 reliably.  From locations as diverse as Kingwood, Cherryville, and Rocky Hill, about 75% of my attempts failed to key the machine - suggesting that the problem most probably is not any one receive site, but rather something systemic.
