[arm-allstar] Transmit PL on Simple USB

I just re-read my post and it sounded a little confusing, so I'll re-write.
My repeater does send PL on transmit, and my HT that I use to talk on my repeater has receive PL working. My Quantar controller emits a very strong birdie on the transmit frequency, a signal that my RF squelch won't mute on my HT at any setting. Only PL squelch works. However, PL mute still takes 1.5 seconds, making me listen to annoying digital noise for that time every time my repeater unkeys. Thus I'd like to set my PL to drop 1.5 seconds before the carrier.  Hope that makes it clearer, and PL from the Pi would make this easy.

Thank you for your replies.

My repeater controller emits a rather strong birdie on my transmit frequency.  My HT finally mutes 1.5 seconds after PL drops, but birdie is too strong to squelch at any setting. Dropping PL upon PTT release while setting repeater hang time to 1.5 seconds would be ideal. Generating the PL on the Pi and increasing the hang time on the Quantar was my plan.

If you have an older radio that doesn’t do tone get you a TS64 board and it will encode and decode for you.
It just goes in the audio chain. They work great!
Here is a link.
