[App_rpt-users] Addition of a second node - messed up node 1

[Ramesh Dhami (VA3UV)]

Hi Steve and all;

I attempted adding a new node (2424) onto my existing system where I 
have 2182 and 2248 running.

2182 is a real node using a usbfob; 2248 is my chan_dstar node.


I followed the instructions in the ACID admin guide when adding the new 
node - modified the 4 files as instructed (rpt.conf, iax.conf, 
extensions.conf and usbradio.conf).

That all went fine - got node 2424 setup and reporting to the stats 
page.  I was able to use CLI and connect 2182 to 2424.  I then noticed 
that there was no audio passing from 2182 over to 2424.

I then tried issuing DTMF from 2182 and no go - CLI did not show my DTMF!

Speaking with Jon (VA3RQ) who recently setup a 2 node system, we edited 
the rpt.conf and usbradio.conf files such that the 2 nodes specified 
Radio/usb0 and Radio/usb1 respectively.  Similarly, we renamed and 
edited the usbradio_tune_usb.conf file to reference usb0, and also 
renamed the file name to usbradio_tune_usb0.conf and 
usbradio_tune_usb1.conf respectively.

No luck - still no audio into the (original) fob.  Unfortunately, I'm 
unable to test audio into the new fob since the mods are not complete!

Since I had saved all of the original files, I rolled back to the 
original 4 files (single node, 2182) and unfortunately, I have the same 
symptoms - no audio into the fob.  In fact when I go into debug mode, I 
do not even see a carrier from the fob.

Audio out of the fob works fine!

Is it possible that I've messed up something else when trying to add the 
second node - i.e., something other than the 4 files mentioned that 
would have an impact on the fobs ability to sense any of the inputs?
