Hi Doug,
Alternatively, there are a number of apps for smart phones which will generate the DTMF tones and you can just hold the phone up to the microphone and do it that way.
There also used to be little pocket DTMF generators which were used to control older telephone answering machines which could also be used.

No. You will need either of the following.
MH-36 E8J DTMF Microphone
MH-59 A8J Remote Control Microphone
Most people like the Remote Control mic due to the extra functionality it provides.

Those who walk bravely through life, unafraid of loss or failure, find that they very rarely lose or fail.

Is there a way to do it thru the radio.
