Doc,

 

I'm not sure what you mean by " I can connect [???] to the system and that
is it. My radio link is up and fully functional[???]." It does sound like
you have downloaded and followed the instructions to install DIAL from
allstarlink.org, and now want to manage your node from a computer. But they
you say, " ... getting someone to write a micro-SD chip for me to just plug
and play." Which sounds like you have not installed DIAL. Once the software
is loaded up on the RPi, then gains need to be set for the attached radio.
If you are using simpleusb (radio generates the PL function and COR) then
follow the instructions at http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/68. If
you are using usbradio (uses digital signal processing) to interpret and
generate CTCSS (PL), then see http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/69

 

After installation, there are a couple of way to manage the server and
operate the node(s).  First is to use ssh (remote login function) to the
app_rpt server via a program like Putty.exe (Windows). If DIAL is installed,
I suspect you may have used this to load and install the DIAL software. The
second way is to use iaxrpt (Windows), which allows you to listen to the
node, and send DTMF commands via your keyboard. See
http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/132 iaxrpt for setup instructions.
See

xe.

 

Hope this helps get you started. If not, please say more.

Hi.

 

I am not one to cry “uncle” but even with help from two professional
computer men we have not been able to get AllStar to work here.

 

I can connect to the system and that is it. My radio link is up and fully
functional.  438.1 MHz & 100 Hz. Tone.

 

Should I be seeing a screen with a “console” like EchoLink or IRLP? I am new
to Linux also.

 

I have a Raspberry Pi-3 and a URIx interface.

 

What would be involved in getting someone to write a micro-SD chip for me to
just plug and play? Obviously the chip will be supplied. The Wi-Fi would be
nice but not necessary. I think if I could once get on the learning curve
may not be quite as steep. 

 

I have been a ham since 1957 and have an extra license and many years as a
broadcast engineer (had First ‘Phone with radar endorsement) – but – by
jingo – this has me bewildered and buffaloed! 

 

==>    NO offense intended.

 

I sent this earlier but from the wrong e-mail address.

 

73 and travel safe and thank you.!

 

Tom – “Doc”
