Yes Doug, Sent a recording off list but you have I think hit the nail on the head as am sure CTCSS is not applicable to D-Star as you say. A strong D-Star signal would get into the RX though, despite CTCSS, I think but cannot prove it as no D-Star here.

What baffles me is that the repeater is in PL (123.0).
