Jay,

Station Access Module, SAM, is available. I can't remember the Field Install
kit number. Usint that with the Basic Wildcard option you can do DTMF
Repeater SetUp and KnockDown. It is field programmable and not especialy
intuitive. Once you've got the hardware in place contact me and i will quote
Programming the Wildcard and SAM Modules. Also, the SAM has seperate RSS
from the radio.
