[App_rpt-users] Found one of my nodes "stuck" this morning

[Paul J. Agamata]

Agreed with you Ken, I don't like using Software TOT.  I had a couple of mishaps with software freezing up and keying the transmitter continuously...  My general rule is to have a hardware time set hard at 3.5m with software TOT begin 3m.

Hmmmm – interesting.

Of course RF could do it but -

I tested it here just now – the TOT does not work on the “remote command”

BTW: For an unoccupied/remote site its recommended to have an external hardware TOT … there is a schematic somewhere ….

(assuming the URI was in fact updating/working … that is, the green light is flashing)
If your time out timer is active, this should never happen.
The time out timer can be de-activated with an instruction though  … I use that when I play back bulletins. The same script that de=activates it, turns it back on again after a while.

All,
Just found one of my nodes “stuck” sending out continuous transmission. No audio coming in but I can IAXRPT to it and TX outbound..
Is this a known issue?  This is the first time this has happened to one of my nodes.
A simple asterisk restart fixed it, but before I did I collected a few things..
Note : The node that had the issue was 27875.. I tried connecting various nodes to it and all had the same issue.. Continuous key up on the network.
