Tom,

Just wonder if your offset is wrong, either trying to transmit on 
simplex or a plus offset for repeaters using a minus offset.

Also, if the radio beeps when you pres the transmit button, it 
likely means you're trying to transmit out of band.  Again this 
could be an offset issue.

Since it transmits fine on the a band, doesn't sound like an actual 
transmit issue but something to do with offsets.

I've found the b band can be a bit tricky sometimes when trying to 
use it for repeater use.

If all else fails, a reset will likely solve the problem.  Don't 
have the instructions here for that at the moment, but maybe someone 
else can give them to you.
