Sorry if this seems a bit sharp, but does anyone bother to read,
look-up, and try to find the answers to simple, basic questions
themselves?

I have a newer mobile Icon 2 meter in my truck. Several of the

are "automatic" when calling into repeaters. Like, when I call into
a
repeater at 147.330 when I transmitt the frequency changes.
I have been thinking of getting an older, cheap radio for inside my
house. Would like ssb capability. On these radios, how does the
frequency change when transmitting using a repeater? I have people
telling me that these older radios are not "pl tone capable" which
would not allow me to use some repeaters. (Only a few around here
use
that). How exactly does pl tone work. Like I said my radio in my
truck
is pretty much automatic.
Yes I am. Why else would I want to know about this information? It
would be pretty useless without it.
