[arm-allstar] PL encode/decode

[Doug Crompton]

Robert,

 One thing you might look into is the com-spec devices. They make quality PL encoders and decoder/encoders in the $30-$55 range. The TS64-WDS is probably what you would want. Most commercial and amateur repeaters have PL built-in but for those that don't a board like this could be added.

I have not been to the site in awhile but it looks like they have some new neat things not related to just tone signaling.

Subject: [arm-allstar] PL encode/decode

I recently went to a site to install my BBB onto a MSR2000. I made what appears a huge error in my planning. Currently the repeater is controlled by a zetron repeaterman which encodes and decodes my PL. My only experience with allstar prior to this BBB was a ACID OS using USB radio. 
So I didn't realize this until I was at the site trying to figure out where my PL tones go. The only thing I can think of is getting hardware to make PL and install it into the repeater. It was decided to use a PC we had on hand and use USB radio. Rather than adding equipment to the repeater for PL.
So my question is if I have a repeater that I want to use a BBB on in the future. What do I need to do? I am not talking about two mobile radios.  I'm talking about real repeater stations like mastr ii.
