There's better ways to do duplex now that we officially support
it.
You can just put the line:
PassAllTG0=x
PassAllPC0=x
... where x is the timeslot you want.
So, if you want TGIF on slot 2 and another network on slot 1,
you would put (assuming DMRGateway):
[DMR Network 1]
Name=TGIF
... other stuff ...
PassAllTG0=2
PassAllPC0=2
[DMR Network 2]
Name=Other
... other stuff ...
PassAllTG0=1
PassAllPC0=1
... and you don't need all the other rewrites.
If you want to run TGIF on BOTH timeslots, you would do:
[DMR Network 1]
Name=TGIF
... other stuff ...
PassAllTG0=1
PassAllPC0=1
PassAllTG1=2
PassAllTG1=2
I always recommend that you put TGIF on Slot 2 so Selfcare works
right until Selfcare is updated for dual timeslot support
(pending me having some vacation time).

I don't think changing config is going to make a difference.
I'll add some logging to the parrot code sometime and see if I
can figure out what's going on as I've had similar issues in the
past. It's likely that the radio is transmitting something that
gets interpreted as you being done transmitting and it starts
playing back early, so you can't hear it or only hear the tail
end of it.

wound up with. It appears TGIF is sending Parrot back on TG 9990
so the SrcRewrite on 100 may not be necessary.

I'm going to take 100 out of the talkgroup directory as 9990 is
really the official parrot port. The last time i talked to Ty
about it, there are some known issues when you use 100 and I
don't see a point in having two.
