Remote device Cleric Repeater has advertised your public key. This may indicate a low-entropy key. You may need to regenerate your public keys.

What should I do?

    It sounds like you may actually have a compromised key. There are going to be a fair number of those around, because of the “bug” (really more of an oversight) in the pre-2.6.11 firmware. I had to get new keys on one of my radios too. Just make sure you’re running 2.6.11 or later before you generate new keys.

      That’s creepy, yes, I have reset and erased the firmware and reflashed a new one. But till now, my public channel still quiet…

        I don’t think your keys affect your interactions with the default public channel, although I could be wrong.

        What I would do is perform a factory reset on the radio and set it back up from scratch. It doesn’t take that long to do and it should eliminate any configuration problems that have crept in from multiple updates.
