Corey,

Thanks for the reply.

I did not realize the reload only reloaded rpt.conf.  Good to know.

As for enabling and disabling ctcss, it looks like there should be 
someway to do that .  Most dedicated repeater controllers have that 
capability.

I think I'll start digging thru the source to see if I can figure out 
how it works.
