[ICOM] Tone squelch operation, "uniformed" question

[Dick Flanagan]

Yes.  In my experience the two encoded tones will mix and you will hear 
the audio products (sum/difference) and the stronger of the four RF 
carriers will capture the others.  Depending on the tone filtering and 
other characteristics of the radios, the tonal grunge can be either 
minimal or overwhelming.  It is one of those things that just has to be 
tried as there are too many variables to give a definitive answer.

Is this just an academic question or are you actually trying to create a 
useful application?
