[App_rpt-users] Repeater Stuck Locked open for 18 hrs

[Loren Tedford]

The way it stands at the moment I am not entirely sure… Here is what I found during reinstallation the Memory failed a self check that I ran while putting Windows on it to stress test the machine.. The hard drive doesn’t seem to want to take any data at this point.. But before attempting to format reinstall on this machine the system booted still.. My guess is some thing mechanical could have caused Asterisks to have failed at this point.. Honestly it seems to be a bit of a waste of my time to continue working on this machine when I have a second one exact specs sitting here ready to go.. We are doing the just in case TOT timer in the radios and this will affect autopatch users and anyone else that doesn’t let the system fully drop.. This is for my own re assurance that I have to the best of my ability solved the issue..

I'm a little confused, Did Asterisk fail or memory and possibly a motherboard?

Well technically it could have been controlled by the two meter repeater had the two meter repeater responded under normal circumstances.. What I am going to do for future repeater operations is to put TOT timers on the radio and I don’t care whether individuals on Autopatch that are calling Emergency services get disconnect etc because of radio tot.. No longer am I going to rely on asterisk to handle the TOT primarly.. Because of this experience.. We now know that we have fried some memory and possibly a motherboard but my testing at this point is stopping.. Moving forward with new gear..
 
We originally turned off the TOT timer in the radios because of scenario involving autopatch and calling during severe weather..

Radio Control was referenced as "Auxiliary Service".
 
Per Part 97 : Sec. 97.201 Auxiliary station

(a) Any amateur station licensed to a holder of a Technician, General, Advanced or Amateur Extra Class operator license may be an auxiliary station. A holder of a Technician, General, Advanced or Amateur Extra Class operator license may be the control operator of an auxiliary station, subject to the privileges of the class of operator license held.
(b) An auxiliary station may transmit only on the 2 m and shorter wavelength bands, except the 144.0–144.5 MHz, 145.8–146.0 MHz, 219–220 MHz, 222.00–222.15 MHz, 431–433 MHz, and 435–438 MHz segments.
So 2 meters and above now.
