I guess the question really is: Do your repeater systems provide line-level processed audio<br>and COR/CTCSS decode themselves.?<br><br>The Beagle/LOX board is a *really* great option. It will run 2 full-duplex repeater systems, but only<br>if they provide their own audio processing.<br><br>Overall, if this will work for you, its a much lower-cost, lower-power and reliable way of<br>doing things, compared to purchase of a new mini-itx system, hard drive (or SSD),<br>2 URI's etc.<br><br>JIM WB6NIL<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sat, 17 Dec 2011 23:14:14 +0200<br>From: shaun@pmbnet.co.za<br>To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org<br>Subject: [App_rpt-users] Mini ITX board or Beagle board or ?? or ?? for remote repeater sites<br><br>

OK, I admit. Have not spent too much time with Mr Google on this
one, but here goes hoping for a short-cut answer................<br>
<br>
I would like to run each of my seven repeater sites (mains/grid
powered with 12v standby bat) each with it's own URI and AllStar
node. Some sites will have two URI's.<br>
<br>
<b>Question; <br>
What PC should I use at each site (12v PC would be nice, and with
"auto power on" from dead battery when mains power returns)</b><br>
<br>
I had a look here <a class="ecxmoz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mini-itx.com/" target="_blank">http://www.mini-itx.com/</a> but the amount of choice
is overwhelming. No idea which one is suitable.<br>
Then there is this thing called a Beagle Board??<br>
<br>
<br>
The processor must be fast enough to handle 2x URI's. I tried using
a HP netbook and an Asus eeePC but voice overs were a bit choppy as
if the processor was battling.<br>
I do not really want fans, hard drives or any other antiquated
moving devices (when are we going to see quiet, passive pc's at the
workplace?)<br>
I do not need wireless, just an Ethernet port.<br>
