Lee,

You can define different telemetry stanzas for each node in the rpt.conf
file. Then, you should be able to assign different local courtesy tones
for each node.  Here is one example:

; Node 1234
[1234]
telemetry=telemetry1234
unlinkedct=ct1
remotect=ct1
linkunkeyct=ct1



; Node 1235
[1235]
telemetry=telemetry1235
unlinkedct=ct1
remotect=ct1
linkunkeyct=ct1



[telemetry1234]
ct1=|t(550,0,150,2048)
; More telemetry here....


[telemetry1235]
ct1=|t(700,1100,150,2048)
; More telemetry here....
