You'll always need more bandwidth than what's needed for a single tone. If

Perhaps this is region dependent. Most radios made for the past several

The upside to using DPL (CDCSS) for repeater access is that few, if any,

I have to agree with Eric on this one. I have set up the DPL on the output of

I would agree CDCSS is more secure for that very reason. I recommended a

Depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
If your intent is to try to somewhat restrict users, DPL would help
accomplish this. Many potential users wouldn't try encoding DPL if they were
attempting to find your tone. Some might, but most would probably just
give up and move on.

The lack of a harsh squelch tailis usually one of the benefits (as opposed
to PL Reverse Burst)...
But locally, at least in the Amateur realm, it's been implemented ONLY to
prevent access by the general Amateur community...

Jason,
The upside to using DPL (CDCSS) for repeater access is that few, if any,
wannabe users will be able to get in- IF you encode a different code (DPL or
PL) than you decode. If your repeater passes through the incoming code to
the output, you have already given the hackers the clues that
