Hi, David, I think I covered this in a previous reply, but I'll add two things: Getting simplex users to all do something together is like herding cats. Analog and digital live well together on P-25 repeaters, which are generally dual mode. The analog users depend on tone decode to keep from hearing the equally harsh P-25 digital sound. So the concept is solid. I just don't think you can apply it to simplex users. 73, Gary KN4AQ ARVN: Amateur Radio//Video News Gary Pearce KN4AQ 508 Spencer Crest Ct.
