[arm-allstar] Problem with ID on simplex link

[pjg]

Mike,

This all started because a good friend and club member was spending 6 
months a year in Ireland.  So I do need to ID the link when he is on it. 
But the node keeps sendeing an ID even when the transmitter has not been 
active. (Under conditions described below.)
