I couldn't tell you which pin it is, but encode tone is available on one
of the connectors on the tone panel/controller board in the top of the
repeater (the board were the tone EEPROM is located). You should be able
to find it with the manual and either interrupt it, or pull it to ground
when no tone is desired. Then just bring the control line for that out a
spare pin on the molex on the back where everything else plugs in. There
is one or two that can be used.

Rgr. I opened it up yesterday evening and found the enable on the module
responsible for encoding. And that signal originates in the tone panel as
you mention. I'm going to test that theory first. Also, I want to see how
disabling the PL will effect the squelch heard on a user's radio. I still
may elect to use an external encoder if my experiement is not so succssful.
Thanks.
