Rpt.conf: “5 = macro”

What is “5 = macro” in rpt.conf, and how does it work?

Thanks,

*5 will call a macro stored inyour rpt.conf file.
Lucky for you and me that I just wrote a page on the topic in the wiki… I hated to type this one over and over…LOL

Not to be confused with ‘startup macro’. See wiki /rpt,conf startupmacro.

Additionally, Bob,
If you are using hamvoip, you will need to consult their help text on this as it does not work the same.
