[Repeater-Builder] CTCSS Tone Encode on Mastr II

Hi Guys, I can use a little advice on hooking a TS32 to a Mastr II. I am using a new TS32 for encode only on the Mastr II TX. I have injected it into the exciter where the stock encoder went, pin 2 on the exciter which is adjustable with the CTCSS Pot on the Mastr II Exciter. I am using 203.5 Hz a

I'm about to go off the air, close now'. Digital squelch (CDCSS, or DPL in Motorola terms, DCG for GE folks) sends a short burst of 133hz tone for the same purpose-to let the decoder know that the transmission is over and to close. And everything I saw had Motorola's original R/B at 120 degrees, not 270. But as someone wise once said, "I could be wrong." -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL
