Actually credit goes to Jeff DePolo for pointing out the parameter. John was just part of the discussion.

Thanks everyone for the contribution and I will test this over the weekend and report back, but I think Ken has already done the dirty work.

Let me correct something I said in a previous posting. You *can* start to get a noise burst if you make hang time too short, but the amount of time between turning off the tone and dropping the carrier is determined by a fixed parameter called TOC_NOTONE_TIME in xpmr.h (pointed out by John Boteler).

After changing this you need to recompile the apps that use it. Follow the instructions at

http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/29

All the nodes on that computer will have that new timing, of course.

Hmmm – maybe I was not clear

If you let Asterisk do the CTCSS detection and generation, select “notone” in your config file and set the hang time (in the other config file) to something reasonable, then users - who have turned on their tone squelch - will hear no squelch tail. Isn’t that what we are trying to do?
