Yes, perfect for home stations. But I know of no ham radios
that can set TX PL independent of CTCSS for receive. There may
be some, but I have never owned one...

Use a separate receiver?

Bob, I sorta remember seeing a ham radio that could do that (I think you
meant set tones differently for TX and RX).. but it was so long ago that
I'm not sure ;-)
BUT, if I read the question correctly, he was asking for a radio to set
receive ONLY without setting transmit. And I'm sure there are plenty of
radios that will do that.

one caveat I discovered when implementing smart beaconing via the serial
port.... anytime you send a command via the serial port, it will "snatch"
the display from you. For example, you are entering a message using the
DMTF keypad and a command gets send over serial port, the message will
simply exit and you loose what you were doing. It's pretty darned
frustrating, so much so that I abandoned smart beaconing for the d700. Now,
simply catching data from the serial port with a external processor,
manipulating it and sending to the GPS would be ok... but trying to set
frequecy on the display _will_ interrupt the user if he's doing something...
and I could not find a way to let the external processor know that you were
using the display to hold off sending data.....

I wonder if the D700 serial port handshaking RTS or DTR pin would tell you?
It wouild be lucky if it did... But I doubt it...
