To playback, globally, a voice file or cw character every time your local
node receiver unkeys
I found this site very helpful. You will probably have to comment out your
present
unkey indication in /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf
down in the [telemetry] put ; in front of the remotetx=
;remotetx=|m K  ;this is what i put in for local cw k when unkeying with
remote connection to any node; wa2kjc

AllStar Event Management

https://wiki.allstarlink.org/wiki/Event_Management

RPT_RXKEYED -- Set to 1 when the node's main (RF) receiver is receiving a
valid signal

<action-spec> = <action>|<type>|&ltvar-spec>

If action is 'F' (for "function"), then action-spec is a DTMF function to
be executed (if result is 1).

So here we go, In: /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf just above ; Misc. settings

events=events5086 ;replace 5086 with your node

; Misc. settings


Then further down in rpt.conf just above ; Define local nodes:

[events5086] ;replace 5086 with your node
COS = v|e|${RPT_RXKEYED}
*974 = f|t|COS  ;replace *974 with your dtmf command you want to play

; Define local nodes

Then in [functions5086]  ;5086 would be your node functions area

974=playback,/etc/asterisk/local/c


Then make the audio file in /etc/asterisk/local and name it c.ul

I have posted documents on how to make cw characters and nice voice file in
the Oct archives.
