I thought that would work, even tried the locked band but that did not work. So I decided I am just going to get some squelch circuits and use them. If I had more time I would build them, but time for me is very little and when I start if I don't finish and I come back, I forget where I am at. 96 hours a week at two jobs and 7 kids does not allow much time for play, hihi. It's been a number of years since I have built anything on a circuit board, and most of what I had learned has been lost due to a disease called CRS. So if anyone has 4 squelch circuits lying around and can make the cost cheaper than the NHRC units, I'd be interested so long as they can give me the 8 volts that I need.

Try setting one side as the control (CTRL)band and leave the other
side as selected with (PTT) try that. I'm not sure if that will work
but it's worth a try. something else, you might be able to get a
schematic and catch the audio switch for the squelch circuit. That
should work, you may have to buffer it with a transistor.
Sorry I didn't understand that you wanted BOTH bands to give you COS.
Good Luck!

ANYTHING ABOU THAT. And nope, a clean clear site, it's all mine, no
other transmitters to worry about.
