[App_rpt-users] Enable Inband DTMF Tones??

[mike at midnighteng.com]

A short solution can be to make a command to generate specific DTMF strings.

cop 200 thru 215 – (Send DTMF 0-9,*,#,A-D) (200=0, 201=1, 210=*, etc)

Create the DTMF strings needed and call them from a macro.

I believe the dtmf rules are hard coded in the radio channel.
