[App_rpt-users] Remote Base telemetry

[Thomas Moss]

Neil,
Thanks for the input, but I am using the serial commands through
hamlib/rigctl to the kenwood serial port on the radio. I have it working
well. The issue is when the node reads back the status or acknowledgement
of the commands it transmits the audio over the remote base radio. I would
like the node to read back the status of the radio with out transmitting it
over the air. I am using the extensions.conf to call my bash script and
then return the information being announced with the Playback command in
extensions.conf. Is there another way to announce the information or a way
to prevent the radio from transmitting while the announcement is happening?

Thanks,
Thomas

it sounds like you are trying to send control dtmf via the 6 pin
interface.  this is only half the trick. to control the radio use an
optional rs232 to usb cable plugged into another usb port.
I use a python script  or bash script or hamlib to send commands to this
control port

Thanks

I am trying to make a Kenwood TM-D710 work through the extensions.conf
phone patch commands to execute a script to command hamlib/rigctl for
control of the radio.


I want to have the audio feedback from the commands to play on the linked
allstar node and not transmitted across the remote base radio. The only
commands I have been using is rpt/localplay and Playback for the audio
feedback. Is there another command which would send the audio to the
connected node and not out to the RF side?


I also have read there is a tmd700 module that works with the native
remotebase commands. Where would I look to modify commands to adapt it for
the tmd710, which appears to have more functionality than I can using
hamlib/rigctl.


For information I am running a current DIAL RC1 image on a raspberry 3.


Thanks,
Thomas
