Greetings, "Nit-Pickers" Back in 1965 the Buffalo repeater WB2TLJ and the Toronto repeater VE3RPT used "secode" tones....a single tone interupted by a standard telephone dial to "remote control" the repeater. This was prior to using DTMF (Touch-Tone)
VE3KSR in Kitchener, Ont was among the very first repeaters in this area to use Touch-Tone in 1969. 73 John VE3AMZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Kelsey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Saturday, July 17, 2004 1:42 PM Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Just a couple of dB loss you say? | I was wondering how he "dialed" his phone. | | Chuck | WB2EDV | | | | ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Neil McKie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | To: <Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com> | Sent: Saturday, July 17, 2004 8:07 AM | Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Just a couple of dB loss you say? | | | > | > If the dual tones went away. how do you remotely control your | > system via radio? | > | > Neil | > | > Ken Arck wrote: | > > | > > At 10:48 AM 7/16/2004 -0700, you wrote: | > > > | > > > I know, now you want my study of the tone frequency comparisons | > > > of the Bell System Touch-Tone plan? | > > | > > <---Naaah.
