There is a continuous problem with Los Angeles Center frequency 132.5 between PMD and DAG. The squelch does not close on the radio when L.A. Center has completed transmitting. This has been a problem for years. The Center Controller; when I questioned him last month; said this was an ongoing problem for the last 10 years he has been a Controller. I switched the radios on my aircraft and the problem continues. I have to trip the mic button to get the squelch to close. Can't something be done with this recognized problem?
