CT-30 CTCSS tone board build

This is a brief review and test of the CT-30 Tone PL Tone board by Repeater Builder.  W3KKC designed this board basically from the application note from the FX-465 tone chip.  The board comes in assembled and kit form with everything you need.  I opted to build it from a kit.  The W3HZU 53.97Mhz repeater will be using this board in conjunction with the new HAMVOIP AllStarLink controller that we'll be installing soon.

The build is straightforward and well documented.  Even the greenest aspiring repeater owner can put this together and start using it.

Here's the initial test of the board proving it operates correctly.


Here's a walk through of using the board for Tone Decoder operation.
