[arm-allstar] Node keeps rekeying up

[Mike Besemer - WM4B]

Doug,

I'm interested in hearing the fix for this, as it exactly describes the 
situation with the node I'm building.

The repeater it will be connected to is mine.  It does not transmit 
CTCSS on IDs or announcements, so that will prevent half of the 
ping-pong cycle.  Is there a way to have the node transmit IDs without 
CTCSS?
