[arm-allstar] hamvoip as a repeater controller

[Steve Smith]

PiTone is a program written in C++, not a script.  It can run all the 
time, follow the TXCTCSS signal with no delay or a settable delay.  The 
options are read from the pitone.ini file on startup.  It is well 
documented and can be downloaded at the link given in my previous post.  
It does require some hardware - as a minimum an MCP4725 DAC board (less 
than $2.50 on ebay).

>I have been kicking around the idea of replacing one or possibly two of my RC210's that have started acting a little nuts lately. I am convinced that HamVoIP is the way to go. Both repeaters have HamVoIP installs on port 2 anyway. My question would be about ctcss end/dec. I saw the post from Steve - N8AR about the script they use with ctcss. Can you adjust the encode time after un-key to cut any courtesy tones or ID's off for users who use enc & dec or other repeaters that may connect by RF. Not a deal breaker but I'd be willing to bet that it is easy. Thanks for the info and list.
