How is this repeater interfaced to HamVoIP??  If connected via simpleusb,
you can use the "brick wall" DCS filter to effectively remove CTCSS/DCS
signaling.  See this message for more info:

If you've got serious harmonic distortion on the CTCSS/DCS signaling, 
the app_rpt rxnotch function will help.  Resolving the harmonic 
distortion issue at the radio is the best plan, of course. See:

Pipelined audio processing features are coming in channel driver updates.
