[App_rpt-users] app_rpt as a controller (duplex=2)

[Matt Beasant]

Hey Ramesh,
Its payback time!

I can now help you with the courtesy tone issue!

You need the following in your rpt.conf

linkunkeyct=ct8 ; telemetry output when a link un-keys

I use this on 2259 and sends a piptone when the remote link unkeys the local
Tx.

Next, the delay between the CT and any other telemetry is set in this part
of the rpt.conf file, I have included that part of my rpt.conf:

[wait-times]

telemwait=2000                          ; Time to wait before sending most
telemetry
idwait=500                              ; Time to wait before starting ID
unkeywait=2000                          ; Time to wait after unkey before
sending CT's and link telemetry
calltermwait=2000                       ; Time to wait before announcing
"call terminated"

This is located immediately under the morse section you mention.

Hope this helps and I'm happy if it does!

Cheers,
