You can use the 'U' to switch to user tones or 'O' to switch to operator tones

user_tones = {
    '1',
    '2',
    '3',
    'A',
    '4',
    '5',
    '6',
    'B',
    '7',
    '8',
    '9',
    'C',
    '*',
    '0',
    '#',
    'D',
}
op_tones = {
    '1',
    '2',
    '3',
    '4',
    '5',
    '6',
    '7',
    '8',
    '9',
    '0',  # 0 or "10"
    'A',  # 0 or "10"
    'B',  # 11 or ST3
    'C',  # 12 or ST2
    'D',  # KP
