<TX> <DTMF:12312312312312> <- activation sequence <RX>
The use of dtmf as a macro and not as a mode, let you insert the activation sequence independently of the mode being used, so it's a great feature.
Searching a little in google I discover that DTMF is 'not' a real communication mode in the full definition, due to his limited charset.
So Dave have make the homework, and I have learned a little more about the digital radio modes.
The DTMF TX as a macro is the right decision as I see it, so I correct myself about it.
But, I'm still wishing for the DTMF RX feature.... Like a "partial mode" as WWV and Frequency Analysis perhaps?

I've been reading about the DTMF encoder and was wondering why it should be in Fldigi. I came up with a use case and I now see the light. Every Sun night we run a net over a 440 repeater linked to a 2M repeater. We use touch-tone commands to bring up the link. The commands are a bit lengthy and are a pain to enter by hand. Only one of my radios has a touch-tone memory. The DTMF encoder would be a super way to bring up the link. So yes, I now think this is a great idea. I'll build this new alpha version and see how well it works to bring up the remote link. 73, Harry Bloomberg W3YJ [email protected] On Tue, 30 Aug 2011, Ing.

But, that could be "useful" as a real mode with TX/RX and some configuration parameters to detect the numbers over the air like dtmfkit does, or to send a series of numbers to remote control radio like the "killer" function in some commercial kenwood stations. Just thinking about it... I can't test the packet mode now (I'm at work) But there are plans to implement the connected mode and not just the unproto mode? Also to implement the fast modes (aka. 4800 AFSK or 9600 FSK)? My local BBS (I'm the SYSOP) have 1200 AFSK (default.. little activity), 4800 AFSK (Main mode, used by almost all because the speed boost) and 9600 FSK (just a little group of user with 9k6 capable radios...) all using soundmodem, would be nice to use fldigi to interact whit it. 73 -- Pavel Milanes Costa Consultor Inform�tico Consultores Asociados S.A.
