OK, well when did it stop? or did it never work? Again use the client menu
#11 to debug. When you enter DTMF looking at the screen you should see the
characters decoded. Hit 0-9,*,# on the radio and see if any decode. Working
properly of course all should decode.

Prime things that cause DTMF to not work.

- Levels not set correctly
- De-emphasis not set correctly
- Bad radio talking to node - try another radio
