The long awaited 100 Hz CTCSS tone (PL for you Motorola fans) is now on the 147.21 repeater. This means you must transmit a 100Hz subaudible tone in order to open up the repeater.

Kevin is also experimenting with a PL "wakeup" mode which would require a 100Hz tone every 5 minutes. This will allow a conversation with someone without a tone as long as the other person has a tone.

Kevin is also experimenting with a dtmf wakeup mode where transmission of a * (lower left corner of your keypad) would be required every 5 minutes.
