[App_rpt-users] progress on the VOTER project

[Jim Duuuude]

There has been much progress made on the VOIP VOTER project
(https://allstarlink.org/voter.html).

The test/demo system is now in place in Madera County, CA and
can be watched/listened to by going to the following URL:

https://allstarlink.org/votermon

This page includes a JAVA applet that, in real-time, shows
the signal strengths of all the receivers in the system, along
with which one is selected by the voting logic, and also 
plays the audio from the selected channel.

It's great to watch the signal strengths change as various
mobile and portable stations move around.

The technology, as a whole is mostly fully implemented.
with a few final issues to still address. Even in its present
condition, you will see that it performs quite nicely.

The biggest thing missing currently is documentation
(gosh, it's just my FAVORITE thing to do... not!), and 
will be addressed shortly. I swear... it really will. :-)

User-constructable boards will be available soon in 
somewhat reasonable quantity (blank boards will
be available for $25 each). In addition, there is progress
being made towards a commercially-available version
of the board design pre-built and tested (with surface-
mount parts).

Check it out. Its definitely worth seeing.
