I'm trying to use a maratrac as a transmitter for a backup repeater for our dept and am using a CSI TP-163 tone panel for 2 differant CTCSS's. I don't plan to use a control head and have located all the connection points except where to inject the tones into the tx modulation. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Re: Another Maratrac Question
If the Maratrac is only the transmitter it makes it easy.
Look for a pad on the Logic circuit board near U701 pin 1. This pad actually connects to pin 2 of U701 the PL filter.
Inject the external PL tone thru a 300K resistor to this point.

Thanks, Will, that was a huge help, I can see it now on the schematic now that you pointed me in the right direction
