[Repeater-Builder] Repeater controller to be used with MSF5000

[Bob M.]

I'm looking for a low-cost, simple, multi-digit DTMF controller to shut an 
MSF5000 repeater down for legal purposes. I've run across one for under $50 but 
was wondering if there's something else out there that's built and ready to 
hook up. Function acknowledgement is not needed; if the repeater stops 
transmitting when I issue the appropriate command, and I can turn it back on 
afterwards, I'll be happy.

How are you controlling your MSF5000 repeaters (for FCC-required shutdown 
purposes)?

Are you using the repeater's input frequency for control, a separate 
receiver, or other method?

Controller make/model/cost?

Interface method (MRTI connector, junction panel DB25 connectors, other)?

Thanks.
