For others who may not know, 'duck' is used in xaiper, and the
telemetry voice 'ducks' under the audio of the repeater user, by
dropping the telemetry voice level by half (or as defined).<br>

Since I was the person who requested and defined the operation of
this function, I feel the need to provide a proper explanation.
This feature was officially added to XIPAR on March 30, 2011.<br>
Here is the email with the explanation of its operation:<br>

Kevin,
Thanks for calling. I'm glad I got your input to add the setting for the
nominal, non-busy channel announce volume in addition to the busy
channel announce volume.
With the new software, the following values can be entered for a
repeater context in /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf.
telemnomdb = Telemetry Nominal dB volume adjustment. This is the number
of dB to adjust the telemetry volume when the channel is not keyed by a
local or remote received signal.
Example: telemnomdb=-3
Default: telemnomdb=0
telemduckdb = Telemetry Duck dB volume adjustment. This is the number of
dB to adjust the telemetry volume when the channel is keyed by a local
or remote received signal.
Example: telemduckdb=-10
Default: telemduckdb=0
I'm ready to load this on a test repeater whenever you have one ready.
After good results, I'll make this change to the install sources.
I'll also have the update script handle the case of locally modified
sources a little better.
73,
Steve, W9SH</pre>

This was ported to node 27258 and tested for about a week. I use
the the following parameters:<br>
<br>
telemnomdb=-10 ; Telemetry Nominal Amplitude reference
in dB<br>
telemduckdb=-15 ; Telemetry Ducking in dB when local or
link voice tx in progress<br>
<br>
My setting are aggressive, but the ability is there to set these the
way YOU like. <br>

Many folks don't realize the female voice behind Asterisk is a real
lady. Her name is Allison Smith:<br>

You'll like here even more when you can control the level of her
voice! <grin><br>
