[SixClub] 6 meter repeater PL tones

[Karl J. Zuk]

My Icom IC-T7H HT (2m/440) can do separate PLs for transmit and receive. 
It doesn't make sense to require a second different PL frequency on the receive side since few receivers require a PL to open up unless you configure your receiver to require that. I more than agree. Why would you want to do that?  Karl Zuk  N2KZ
