DTMF is an in-band signaling method using dual sinusoidal signals for any given code.
Originally developed for tele phony systems, it has proved a very versatile tool in many
other areas.
In two-way radio systems, DTMF is most commonly used for automation systems and
remote control. A common example would be in amateur radio repeaters where some
repeaters are activated by sending out a DTMF sequence (usually a simple single-digit
sequence)
