lose the RLC-MOT and program in an output based on receiver activity! That would be easiest. Other than that, is there a SAM board in the station? The Quantar does not really have discriminator audio available as it is a digitally processed platform and it just re-creates it for you. The station could be muting the DTMF tones and that would possibly be why the RLC-MOT board sees nothing? I have never tried that myself, so without being there to troubleshoot the system ... I am just "throwing darts at it".
