I did not mean to imply in my post that ENCO requires an audible tone at the
end of each talk break.  That was just how WCLZ had it set up to automate
remote broadcasts.  For regular operation, audible tones are not required.
(And they may now have a more modern system for remotes.  My example was
from 1996.)
