      I never quite got this.   In order for this to work, I'd need to
run PL squelch, right?  So how, then, would my APRS station be able to
hear, say, the local digi or WX station that *isn't* transmitting a PL
of 100?  Or would I need to have both VFO's of my D7 or D700 on 144.39
(the A side running data transmitting a  100 hz tone and the other VFO
listening with PL squelch)?  73
