Notone AKA chicken burst gives you carrier with no tone at the end. But some radios are too slow in closing the CTCSS and still make noise. There was a posting on here a while back that pointed the time delay in: /usr/src/asterisk/asterisk/channels/xpmr/xpmr.h The default is 600 ms. Some radios might be slower than this. You could change (increase) it, then make / make install and restart asterisk. My Alinco DR-?35 series seem to want to give you a small squelch tail no matter what you do, however. 73 Ken From: app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org [mailto:app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org] On Behalf Of Jim Duuuude Sent: Saturday, December 24, 2011 6:17 PM To: w7ry@centurytel.net; app_rpt mailing list Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] CTCSS Drop Out Time try txtoctype = notone in usbradio.conf JIM WB6NIL _____ From: w7ry@centurytel.net To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Date: Sat, 24 Dec 2011 13:55:51 -0800 Subject: [App_rpt-users] CTCSS Drop Out Time Anyone know if there is an adjustment of the time the transmitter stays keyed, and the PL tone drops out and where that setting is? With my rigs, I still here the squelch crash after the repeater drops out. I would like to cut the PL off a little sooner or delay the transmitter a little longer. BTW, I'm all up and running with the repeater function and the node! Thanks to all that helped me get past the learning curve! Thanks!
