<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have a question,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">How are you going to differentiate the
DTMF tones used for this from the repeater control DTMF tones? </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">1. Most repeater owners who use DTMF
control guard them very carefully. One wrong tone can cause the repeater
to go crazy, meaning you might have make a trip to a mountain top or restricted
access building. They are not universal, and many poeple will be
suspicious if you ask for them out of the blue.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">2. Some repeaters strip DTMF off, others
do not, it depends on the controller. If I listen I will hear lots of DTMF
tones, but no voices identifying on a repeater. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">3. How will I know if a repeater in
an area uses this? Is this going to be in ARRL repeater directory,
or sent on APRS? I don't think you want to just blindy try sending
DTMF on a repeater without asking a local user.</font>
<br>
