    <p>Brian,</p>
    <p>I could be wrong and you may get a better answer but I believe if
      I understand right,<br>
    </p>
    <p>the rx sq level is for vox and you should/normally be using cos
      from a pin on your fob, parallel port or using ctcss trigger for
      the COS</p>

      setup my hr remote again anew)<br>

          is when setting the "RX Squelch Level" in the radio-tune-menu,
          it detects the current RX signal strength as 999. This results
          in the inability to use anything other than CTCSS for carrier
          detect. I can make plain old VOX work too, but it results in
          considerable (2 sec+) hang time.</span><br

          DSP carrier detect won't work because it's impossible to set
          the squelch high enough (max value 999). It always thinks
          there's a signal present when there isn't. This happens
          regardless of whether there's a radio connected to the dongle
          or not. As a matter of fact it happens even when plugging in
          an unmodified dongle right out of the package. I need it to
          work with no CTCSS. VOX would be fine if it wasn't for the
