<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Thanks for the reply, Tim. I ordered a
RTCM yesterday. We have three repeaters that we could vote but we think it
better to continue using our RC-210’s. The resale value on them is so low
that we’d be throwing away over $1k. There are benefits on both sides of
the question. We CAN get wi-fi to one site but not others and none of them inexpensively.
We figure that we’ll reuse the frequency pair with GPS to sync the
transmitters (something I’ve never done before,) lower the TX power so
that two repeaters don’t crash into one another but instead pleasantly
overlap, and then let users choose which repeater they want to come in on.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I’d love full time voting and we may
get there one day. The biggest problem we have being in southern <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">California</st1:place></st1:State> is that all
the hilltops are equally able to hear bases and mobiles and to some extent HT’s.
We are already coordinated on three of the four sites in question. We want guaranteed
coverage in the event of a regional emergency, like another earthquake in
Northridge. The ease by which we can telephone the RC-210 and unlink that site
is important. The trick as I have been warned is avoiding conflicting DTMF. As
I see it by telephoning the controller instead of OTR we might avoid these
conflicts. Additionally, our 900MHz system will serve as our back-up linking.
We can still communicate with any site using 900MHz. I don’t want to sell
the RTCM short since I haven’t even used one yet. But we have weather
receivers, link repeaters<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>With this said, in an emergency situation,
like the Big One hitting southern <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">California</st1:place></st1:State>,
we will be delinking all repeaters. Allstar will not be needed during this
event. Does it make sense having a RTCM on each repeater rather than just one
RTCM on the primary repeater? The others will get theirs over the link anyway.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Lastly, my boss owns an internet company
and the server has been donated and will be placed in the data center with
100Mbps throughput 24/7/365. The server will be a dual processor AMD 248 single
core with 4GB of RAM and RAID 5. I believe in giving back and will gladly share
with others. Will I able to offer to others? As well, I can either have a
dedicated server but my preference is a dedicated VPS using CentOS 6.x. They
backup all servers nightly and using Virtuozzo (part of Parallels Plesk
environment; we load Virtuozzo 4.7x and then Plesk on top of the container.)
The advantage is that if we have a hardware failure our node may be migrated to
another node in their server farm. If it is a catastrophic failure they can
restore from a recent backup. I even have an app on my phone that allows me to
control and even reboot the server.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Virtuozzo automatically installs its own
template of CentOS and some packages are missing, etc. Many are added back,
like PHP and mySQLi and most of the CentOS distro. How then can I load Acid and
configure it in a Virtuozzo environment? We may even load Plesk 12 on top of
the node considering the horsepower that it has. Is there a list of files that
I will need to get onto the VPS as well as RPM’s or packages required by
Allstar?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
