I have modified the 818-prog program to include the capability to set
reverse burst to off/on using the "AT+SETTAIL=TAIL" command . The
modified program is called shari-pixx-prog. It can be downloaded from
www.groups.io/g/shari/files Note that there is no checking done to
check the command "AT+SETTAIL=TAIL" because it erroneously returns a '0'
for either setting (0 or 1).
When using the program '0' means no CTCSS reverse burst and '1' means
send CTCSS reverse burst. If you want to experiment with reverse burst
o an SA-818, you can upload the program to the /usr/local/sbin folder of
your Pi using WinSCP. After you upload it be sure to make it executable
by right clicking on it from within WinSCP and checking the three
executable boxes (boxes labeled X). You run the program the same way you
run 818-prog.
For this to work, the radio you are using to talk to your node must
support reverse burst.
It turns out that the default setting for the SA818 used in SHARI is
reverse burst turned on. I use a Kenwood TH-F6A and hear no squelch
tail with it turned on.
