[App_rpt-users] Echolink database

[Doug Crompton]

Tim (and all),

OK on rpt.conf. CCing this to the forum.

I  think my confusion was between the xipar and acid Allstar versions. Apparently the xipar version uses the  echolink/sl0   stanza setting. 
Also I will be adding echolink call lookup to lsnodes for those that have echolink enabled. 

Can anyone can explain the third parameter (shown as 1 below) for 'echolink dbget' ?  It seems that it does not matter what it is but it has to be there.

WA3DSP_Allstar*CLI> echolink dbget 1 147090
147090|WA3DSP-L|50.191.8.33

WA3DSP_Allstar*CLI> echolink dbget
Usage: echolink dbget <nodename|callsign|ipaddr> <lookup-data>
       Looks up echolink db entry

Sorry I didn't read your note thoroughly. Yes, zap/pseudo is the way to do it with no radio. Just add another node to your system and point echolink at it.

Tim,

What is the proper way to install echolink in rpt.conf ?

I tried -

rxchannel=echolink/el0

and on restart it failed - would not enter cli.

This is the way it is shown in the examples.

When I use -

rxchannel=Zap/pseudo

It works. In both cases the echolink.conf points to this stanza.

I want to have a node just for echolink. No radio. I will connect to radio node as desired.

Echolink seems to work with the pseudo channel, someone connected to me and we communicated.
