If you can get discriminator audio out of your radio then you should be able to use that on an unmodified dongle. That way you can have the RX node do the tone decoding and squelch.

Not familiar with the Yaesu 2600 but if it has a packet connector you should find discriminator audio there. Might have to put theradio in 9600 baud mode to getthe right stuff on the connector. If not then you might want to look at at some other radios where you can get discriminator audio out.

Not just level but speaker audio (should) has filtered audio and PL won’t be there...speaker audio = bad audio.(Editorial comment: this is one way Echolink gets to sound Soooooooo bad)

Nope, the USB dongle MIC input only needs a few hundred millivolts. Speaker is way more that that. What are you intending to sue for the receiver? Perhaps someone on this list will be familiar with your radio and can suggest a better place to get audio.

Hello all we would like to  extend our repeater  receive area by putting in a receive site  but with a different PL tone .  we have an area that we lose HT coverage but  can hear it fine from the main tx of the repeater site. .  Could i just buy a USB FOB CM108  and not mod it  and just plug in the speaker from the radio into the Mic of the  dongle?
 
Thanks for your help
