[Xastir] how do I?

I'd put the switch in the PTT line.  Better yet, take your idea of a DTMF code
to reboot the box, and use DTMF code to enable/disable the PTT at the remote
sites.  THat way we could bypass the system and fall back to local RELAYs if
needed.

Thanks for ideas!!  (bootable CD idea too)
