I think that either way, it's up to the individual
receiver as to how well it operates, if at all. I'd
suggest that you don't do it rather than risk some
radios working and some not.
You could run two CTCSS tones, but beware of the sum
and difference frequencies. If the difference happens
to be near another CTCSS tone frequency, you'll get
falsing on that frequency as well. Also, the sum will
probably be above 300 Hz, thus becoming quite audible
and noticeable by most users. Do you want all the
complaints too?
