[App_rpt-users] Problems with my URI

[Doug Crompton]

I doubt it is a URI problem if PTT and receive carrier/signal detection is working correctly. I assume repeated audio is fine? The receiver keys the transmitter? This is a repeater not a simplex node right? 

I would check your /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf file against the sample in 
/usr/src/astsrc/asterisk/configs/rpt.conf.sample  The sample has better comments and would show you some starting values. If you change anything always make a comment like:

duplex=2 ; was 1

in particular...

The duplex mode  - duplex=    if this is a simplex node then you would want to set it to 1. Setting it to 0 would stop the courtesy tone. If it is a repeater then you would want to set it to 2.

Also check in particular these value:

idrecording = |i<yourid>    ; id recording
idtalkover=|i<yourid>        ; Talkover ID (optional) default is none

set these to your preference. CT's defined in the telemetry stanza

unlinkedct=ct2
remotect=ct3
linkunkeyct=ct8

and all of the timer values including the wait-time stanza.

If you do think you have a DMK URI problem I would contact them directly. They could help you with the test results.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] Problems with my URI

Earlier on I had asked a question about being able to broadcast a customized Audio Ident and how to do it in the Acid Linux  os.... Now I have a issue with my repeater not indenting it has no hang time and if i key up and dial the *80 it does i dent only if i hold down on the transmit button of my portable. Also tested both radios the transmit radio and the receive radio notice a little hum in the Receive radio when it transmits but otherwise perfect on its receive any ideas as to what could have happened it actually occurred in the middle of the night and found out the next morning. Currently think its software but to rule out the URI i made a test cable and tested the URI in the test software there is multiple selections the first selection is = t it failed on this test the next test is T it failed on this test but still gave very high values just similar to the normal test. If I test left and right channel it comes out normal. if i test anything else it all comes back to successful does anyone know what those test values should be? If it still repeats does this mean the URI is still good? Just a note did do full re installation of the software and even tried to start over with two computers fresh install just to ensure that it wasn't computer usb related issues. Is it possible Asterisks did a software update that is causing my problems? Lots of unknown values and questioning alot of settings in the  rpt.conf and asterisk.. Please give me an idea where i should start thanks..
