[arm-allstar] The Quantar and AllStar

[Doug Crompton]

Bill,

 Sure this would be possible assuming the Quantar has a bit that can be
checked that indicates it is in P25 mode. In that case you could simply use
a hardware switch to break COS and/or PTT when in P25 mode. This approach,
if possible, would be completely independent of Allstar. It would basically
turn off the connect to Allstar like a radio was not there. If you do not
have some signal indication that it is in P25 mode I would have no idea how
you would do it.
