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,

Hi Steve and all;

I have setup node 2424 with app_rpt acting as the controller (so direct
interface between the fob and the rptr); a couple of observations /
questions:

1.  I can't seem to change the frequency (pitch) or speed of the CW
ident.  I have the following in the morse stanza in rpt.conf:

[morse]

speed=30                ; Approximate speed in WPM
frequency=500           ; Morse Telemetry Frequency
amplitude=4096          ; Morse Telemetry Amplitude
; idfrequency=500
idfrequency=500        ; Morse ID Frequency
idamplitude=1024        ; Morse ID Amplitude


Is this a known issue or am I missing something?



2.  Courtesy tones:

(a) When a remote link finishes transmitting, there is no courtesy tone.
   I believe the following line specifies the c'tone for the remote:

remotetx=|t(1633,0,50,3000)(0,0,80,0)(1209,0,50,3000)


Do we need to specify / enable the remotetx somewhere?

(b) Is the time delay between the drop of a carrier and the beginning of
the c'tone (when using the repeater in local mode) variable? - the delay
seems to be quite long.



3.  PL tone:

In usbradio.conf I have the following:

txtoctype=notone ; notone - encode CTCSS and stop sending tone before
unkeying TX



Is the time between the end of PL and drop of carrier variable (to avoid
squelch crashes on non-commercial aka amateur radios!)



Thanks!

Ramesh.
