[SixClub] 6 meter repeater PL tones

[Richard J. Fiero II W5TFW]

OK,

 I'll go there I was  trying to stay OUT of this,.... but here is the 
arguement I was given,

 it seems there are some that believe that the PL tone,.. ( on 6 
meters )....
if they are both the same for ENCODE & DECODE,...... tend to PING / pong 
each other !

  I do NOT know this to be the case,....... but thats the way it was 
explained to me..........

 I am FAR from an expert, ( more like a  gossip than a  TECH,. ) but thats 
the way I have heard it,   I dont run a pl on both sides, on mine,..... and 
have never tried it at all.
 So I do not know this to be the case at all.

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
