[App_rpt-users] Setting Up a Chicken Link With ASL

[Mike]

There are many methods for doing this.
The one I prefer is to use ctcss on link radios and use the tone for COS
So if you can 'pass' pl on the system OR generate a pl only when the 
repeater has a active cos, works.
You can't listen to the repeater 'tail' on your cos.
It's the same mistake most make when doing radio remote echolink set-ups.

I’m looking for some pointers as I attempt to setup a “chicken link” with our remote repeater using a local radio attached to an Allstarlink node. The radio operates in half-duplex with the receive audio out over the internet, and the audio coming in from the internet is transmitted to the remote repeater. My first attempt resulted in ping ponging between the repeater and my local radio. I’m certainly missing something. I’m looking for some added insights. I started by using duplex=0 in rpt.conf
