I have been usig a DTMF defeat for the subtone for several years. That is also announced of the dtmf code to enter along with the subtone frequency. After the subaudio tone is disabled by the dtmf code if there is no activity on the input frequency for about 30 seconds , the repeater will go from the squelch activation to needing a subaoudio tone. If someone is comming into the area without the subaudio tone programmed in , all he has to do is wait for the repeater to become inactive lone enough to enter a 001 on the dtmf pad. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
