I was wondering why PF3 insists on giving me barometer calls on departure when I'm way above the transition altitude for the region I'm flying in.

Are you assuming PF3 knows the transition altitudes for the various regions? Have you adjusted them or left them at their default values.

Please attach the log file so we can see if there's a problem

I've left the transition altitudes at default so I wouldn't expect to hear a baro call at F120 in my country where the transition altitude is 3000ft.
When I have the time I'll make a flight and post a log when the issue appears.
