<div>Thank you very much... now I can monitor what's going on the radio channel with my sip phone. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I guess this pciradio.c should go into the howto... I tought the version that comes with zaptel was alright...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Another question... How does the DTMF stuff work with both zaptel.cfg and app_rpt?<br><br> </div>

<br>>><br>>> To hear receive audio, you must make sure you have COR hooked up to the<br>>> quad radio card. The way to test this is to use another radio to<br>>> simulate a transmission to the radio connected to the Quad PCI radio
<br>>> card, The green light on the back of tha card should light when a signal<br>>> is received and go out when the signal goes away. If this is not<br>>> happening, then this is why you aren't hearing any receive audio.
<br>>><br>>> If you are not getting a green light on the card when a signal is<br>>> received, try the following:<br>>><br>>> 1. With a voltmeter or scope Make sure the COR swings from 0V to greater
<br>>> than 5V or 5V to 0V when a signal is received.<br>>><br>>><br>>> 2. Make sure that the ctcss statement(s) are commented out in<br>>> zaptel.conf like this:<br>>><br>>> #ctcss=1109,2,1109
<br>>><br>>> and that exttone is set to n:<br>>><br>>> exttone=n<br>>><br>>> and that invertcor=y or invertcor=n is set so that the green light comes<br>>> on when a signal is received and goes out when the signal goes away.
<br>>> Change it to the opposite of what is if the green light is on with no<br>>> signal and off with a signal.<br>>><br>>><br>>> Steve.<br>>><br>>><br>>><br>>> Renato Ornelas wrote:
