If it is in fact D-Star...I would think the most likely cause would be someone analog-ly crossband repeating from a D-Star frequency into your input with the needed ctcss. To my knowledge, no Icom D-Star radio allows for ctcss along with the data as it would corrupt it. It could be done with a hybrid connection between digital and an analog programmed radio however I would say it would be intentionally malicious at that point as ctcss and D-Star do not mix..

Here is a link to an MP3 of what D-Star sounds like on an analog receiver.

DSTAR is totally foreign to me. I can't think of anyone in the immediate area that even has a DSTAR capable radio.

We are experiencing some interference on the input to one of our club repeaters. What baffles me is that the repeater is in PL (123.0). Is it possible that a DSTAR user in a neighboring area is inadvertently transmitting PL and getting into our machine?

Also it would GREATLY help if someone had the capability of making me a short .wav clip of what DSTAR sounds like on an analog receiver.

Thanks
