[App_rpt-users] Motorola Phone Patch (Bob - AF6D)

[Bob - AF6D]

This is excellent news! To be clear on random connections, I'd like my own
private network, but I'd also like a public server. Can they be the same
server? Not a problem either way. I have rack space.

 

The reasons to use Allstar that you state are the reasons we've chosen it.
Snow has hampered us somewhat with another storm brewing mid-week. We're
getting about one foot a week at 6,400 feet in So. California. Just enough
to snow on my parade. For now then I need to configure each repeater and the
Thin Client.

You won't have much trouble setting up what you want with some config file
hackage.

Most of the phone patch "secret sauce" is just Asterisk configuration.  If
you don't want random Allstar connections, you don't need to allow them.
The phone patch is easy to control.   You will need a sip trunk, either from
an external provider, or you can put a SIP adapter on a local POTS line.
You will find that a cheap SIP trunk costs less than a POTS line with
adapter and works much better.


Radios are simply extensions on the asterisk system.  This makes them very
flexible.

You have exposed my rookiness! LOL. I am aware that a thin client hooked up
acts like a controller. Fallback mode I guess. But I was under the
impression that there are open conference servers, or that others may call
our node if connected to the internet. I have much to learn.

 

Our plan remains the same. We intend to link both MSF's on different
mountain tops via our own server. I own the hosting company and have Tier 1
bandwidth at my beckon call. But we want to have our own phone patch and
have a phone line at our data center. Both nodes are true public safety
(ECS/ARES/SAR) and expenses come out of my wallet. It is my hope that there
is a way to add a phone patch that doesn't cost us a recurring fee.

 

With regards to our dedicated server I was under the impression that we
could have our own private network, and, a public network for others to use.
Giving back for fun and for free. But our phone patch would be for our
exclusive use. We envision macros that will telephone specific numbers. I am
Linux literate if I can create my own phone patch.
