Yes you can effectively change tone if you pre-load the radio's memories with the channel/CTCSS combos. CTCSS tone freq. cannot be changed remotely when the G707 is in VFO mode. > Now if all the repeaters you are txing the tone so you can run >tone squelch...there is a mod you can do on the TM-G707 so that the >computer port on the radio brings out the CT.

Ken gave me the mod. a while back; came in handy at Dayton this year as I was able to use the G707 in CTCSS mode as a link radio for my portapeater. However, putting the radio back into carrier squelch worked as well. Perhaps there are different mods available for that radio. The only caveat to the mod. is that you can't turn the volume all the way down, otherwise the COS output from the radio goes invalid all the time. Bob NO6B
