Contrary to some beliefs, putting CTCSS on a repeater DOES NOT MAKE IT "A CLOSED" mschine! Group, As Coy said, CTCSS does not make a repeater closed! In fact ALL repeaters in Illinois must pretty much use other than carrier squelch to be coordinated or retain their coordination. Actually, it's up to each repeater system operator here to use carrier, CTCSS, DTMF, Captain Crunch, or whatever access, but in cases of interference, preference will be given to the system not using carrier squelch. 73, Al, K9SI
