GP 68 DTMF ANI question

[ISKRA87]

Hello everyone, I am new here. I am stuck and looking for anyone who can help me out.

I affectionately have a GP 68 which I use for duty. I want to program a DTMF ANI that sounds similar to those used by law enforcement or firefighters. A sample of that sound is repeated many times in the following clip for your reference:

YouTube - Officer Needs Help (Radio Transmission)


I understand that the GP 68 has a PTT ID system already integrated with it, but I want the specific sound from above. Also, is there any way to program the GP 68 to give the DTMF ANI at the end of the transmission instead of the beginning?

Any help is greatly appreciated, and please let me know if you need me to clarify anything. thanks in advance!

Sorry you can't. The ID'ing you are hearing on the You Tube clip sounds like MDC 1200 and IS NOTHING like DTMF and there is no way your going to make DTMF sound anything like what it is. Get your self a REAL Moto radio, Ht-1000 or such. GP-68 is just a cheap Moto Asian market radio. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. unfortunately, I am not able to get a better, high powered radio. I am constrained to a max of 1-watt transmitting power due to interference with on station sensitive equipment. I know the GP 68 can go to 1.5-watts, but I only operate in .5 mode. It was a good platform for the money, and I am trying to integrate it with the current DTMF system we have.

I am an amateur as far as knowledge of the current market, but can you recommend any platforms that can fit this constraint? Thanks for the help!
