Neil:


When you say "default tone set to last", I'm not sure where/what you're referring to.  I have the 151.4 (default tone) as the last entry in rxtctcssfreqs= and txctcssfreqs= in usbradio.conf already.  Is that what you're referring to?

  then the the tx tone would always be the last heard
  but I am not sure that’s what you want

  Thanks for the reply Steve.  When I uncomment txctcssdefault, it reverts to no ctcss on the transmit side when PTT is release.

    Michael,
    We are looking at the channel drives now. I can't say I have tried your config. I will test when I get a chance. Your configuration looks correct. I would be interested in hearing what happens when you comment out the txctcssdefault. 
    Hopefully someone else will chime in.

      A follow up to my previous email:


      I have multiple ctcss tone frequencies in usbradio.conf.  app_rpt is decoding the incoming CTCSS (confirmed using debug), and it transmits CTCSS while someone is actively keying the repeater.  However, as soon as they release PTT, app_rpt stops transmitting the corresponding CTCSS tone that was being used, and reverts to the default tone instead.


      So, if I key the repeater using 146.2, it broadcasts out using 146.2 and other radios hear audio just fine.  But, as soon as I release PTT on the mobile/portable radio, the squelch tail is broadcast using 151.4, not 146.2.  This results in the users programmed with 146.2 not hearing the courtesy tone or squelch tail.  


      Has anyone else run in to this issue?  


      Here's my usbradio.conf file again:


[usb]

hdwtype=0
rxboost=1
txboost=1
rxctcssrelax=1
txctcssdefault=151.4
rxctcssfreqs=146.2,141.3,151.4
txctcssfreqs=146.2,141.3,151.4
;rxctcssoverride=0
carrierfrom=usb
ctcssfrom=dsp
rxdemod=flat
txprelim=yes
txlimonly=no
txtoctype=phase
txmixa=composite
txmixb=0

        Hello,
        I am unable to get any ctcss to be encoded during transmit, except for the tone frequency that's entered in to the txctcssdetault field.  If I change that tone, the new value gets transmitted.  However, all of the other tones in the txctcssfreqs are being ignored.  However, I do know that the rxctcssfreqs values are being decoded.  If I transmit in to the repeater using a tone not listed, or without a tone, app_rpt ignores it and does not repeat and key up the transmitter.  Any assistance is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance!
