The logic here in EI is typically a 1750Hz tone is needed to 'wake up' the repeater after a period of inactivity. once the repeater is open the 1750Hz tone is no longer required if this is to be 'auto-magic' have it TX a 1750Hz tone IF, repeater shift is on AND squelch is closed at the time of TX. If the squelch is open then the repeater is already open and the Tone burst is not required to wake it up.
Here in EI all repeaters support Tone burst access, many support CTSS and some encode CTSS on their transmissions too (but only when the repeater has it's squelch open, I.e no ctss on beacon IDENTs etc) 73 Brendan EI6IZ (Keeper of EI2TGR repeater ) On Tue, 2009-10-06 at 21:52 -0700, Wayne Burdick wrote: > On my list. > > tnx > Wayne > N6KR > > Jan Erik Holm wrote: > > > PLEASE ...make it so that [1750 Hz burst at start] can be switched > > off. > > In Sweden this is not needed for repeater work, after > > repeater been activated with 1750Hz it is carrier > > operated. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
