DStar doesn't use CTCSS (PL) and even if it did you would not 'hear'
anything on an analog radio. If your problem really involves DStar,
what /could/ happen is:
1. A DStar signal with enough energy in the 123 hz decoder to trip
the radio (not too likely I think.)
2. A mix that involves a DStar radio and an analog radio running
CTCSS (what I would bet on.)
What makes you think a DStar radio is the interference source?
