I studied this application requirements and saw the hardware needed they describe a radio quad which uses RJ 45 but I can't see where the RJ goes in order to be able to communicate with the radio devices, I have absolutely no knowledge in two way radio devices so I hope some one could complete the full picture for me behind the radio quad. And what I plan to use this feature is to expand my * PBX network to remote sites and use it to talk to onsite engineers through the two way radio devices using iaxrpt. -- Thx MAG -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Or change your project by using Kirk DECT/GAP base stations and repeaters to cover all your site and remote link if not too long, and you will see each engineer as a SIP account into your Asterisk. You can contact me of this list if you want discuss more...

There is an initial write up about this new hardware interface on my site at http://app-rpt.qrvc.com/usbsoundfob.html. The USB channel driver has DSP code in it for CTCSS detection and generation, squelch, pre-emphasis and de-emphasis, audio level setting, and soft limiting. You only need to make 3 connections to a repeater. Discriminator audio, transmit audio. and PTT. A COR input is supported, but not required. The hardware is really inexpensive! USB sound fobs can be bought for $7.95 at places like geeks.com. You will need 3 resistors, a Shottky diode, and an NPN transistor in order to complete the modification. A schematic detailing the modifications and pictures of the USB sound fob before and after modification are posted on at the URL above. I am working on a set of detailed modification instructions with pictures so that those who want to use this interface can modify the USB sound fob themselves. Have Fun!

Great work guys! So this eliminates the need for an ARIB board and FXO/FXS board?

Message-ID: <006301c7f990$b86e6d40$5e01a8c0@launchmodem.com> This is great guys, I have already started the to add the necessary packages on FC6, but for some reason can't find the rpms for libasound and libasound-devel. Also, would like to now since I have the ARIB card almost working hi hi, I wonder can I run it and the usbsound fob on the same box as 2 radio ports? I would like to configure my FT857D as an agile HF/VHF-UHFremote system and the other to controll the controller to link up a gateway to a wide coverage repeater here in Huntsville, AL.
