Re chan_IRLP cannot connect to ref 9035
by RED BUTTON MOBILE 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hi All, I did some poking around and found that the updated files are getting updated but they are bing put into /home/irlp/update-files/scripts directory instead of the /home/irlp/scripts on my chan_Irlp node. The problem seems to be that the ref-x-reference file was vastly out of date.(over a year old!) I manually copied the new file from the /home/irlp/update-files/scripts directory over to the /home/irlp/scripts directory. I restarted Asterisk and now I can call REF9035! So it seems that when file updates are done they do not update the old files properly. Happy new year every one! 73s, Jon VA3RQ

Chan IRLP doesnt connect to reflector 9030
by RED BUTTON MOBILE 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hi All, hope everyone is enjoying a great holiday. I'm trying to find out why my node 2249 which has chan IRLP wont connect to a new reflector 9030. It seems to work on all the other reflectors ok but it gives me a connection fail on any channel on that reflector. Reflector 9030 is new reflector up here in Southern Ontario Canada. I can connect to that reflector with my real IRLP box so there must be some update not working or App_Rpt cant find the reflector. WE have 3 other nodes with chan Irlp and none of them can connect there either. I am running app rpt v 0.203 and chan irlp v0.27. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks, Jon VA3RQ

Echolink Question
by Monty Dana 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

Hello, I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem. When I connect to a Echolink station from my All Star node, say the Echo Reflector, I seem to get a loop. I don't key my repeater, and It will keep going back and forth and the telemetry CT is a single boop, like it is from the link, not a beep boop like from my repeater. So I connected my All Star node to my windows laptop running Echolink as a single user, and whenever my node is receiving a signal from an echolink station, after the station is done "transmitting" my node will return with a transmitting signal with no audio. Anyone else have this? Thanks, Monty KE7JVX

URI and DMTF
by Frank Herzog 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi, we are using an URI to connect a radio to an asterisk. We would like to disable DMTF encoding from the radio channel to the asterisk. Is this possible?

Toggle CTCSS Decode for repeater access or carrier only on/off
by Steve Gladden 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Using USBRADIO> I've not figured how to turn on/off CTCSS repeater access or carrier only repeater access via DTMF command. Is this possible or supported? I ca do it by reconfiguring usbradio and restarting asterisk/zaptel but I've not figured out how to do it via DTMF. I'd like to be able to 'open up' the repeater for carrier access during events, special occasions and nets via DTMF command schedules etc. Thanks!

FW: Device usb currently not active
by Paul 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi again, This is a follow up to my earlier message. The JMTek, LLC. fob uses a SSS1623 IC. Not the CM108 that it claims. A schematic is available at http://www.power-on.com.tw/PRODUCT/USB-AUDIO/SSS1623%20product%20spec%20Ver% 201.02.pdf I changed the define statement in chan_usbradio.c to match the JMTek chip and I get a blinking light and I can pass tone using the radio tune txvoice command. However, this does not address the COR and PTT requirement. The SSS1623 chip does have GPIO control pins but on the fob I have they do not appear to be brought out to the board. If you have a fob with a discrete chip on it you may be able to get to these pins. But it may also require a new device type be added to chan_usbradio.c and usbradio.conf. Does anyone know a reliable source for the CM108 fobs?

I am new to asterisk and ROIP. I am trying to set up a test system for evaluation. I purchased 2 USB sound adapters that claim to be CM108 but I have NOT tried to modify them yet. I completed the installation, and connected the USB device when instructed. When I type radio tune I get the following: test*CLI> radio tune Active radio interface is [usb] Device String is Card is -1 Output A is currently set to composite. Output B is currently set to off.

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Is this because I have not modified the USB fob? Or, is it because it is not really a CM108? Is it possible to tell in software if it is a CM108?

Device usb not active
by Paul 13 Dec '09

13 Dec '09

Matt, Ken and Steve, Thanks for the response, the information is very helpful. The package I have is clearly marked Cmedia Cm108 USB 7.1 Channel Sound. But the identity is Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0c76:1607 JMTek, LLC. When I open the device, it has a round black BUG or blob in the middle of the board, not a clearly defined chip. There are no markings on the BUG. Thanks again, Paul

Audio Dropouts

Audio dropouts seem to be happening more often on my node. I was monitoring an IRLP QSO today while watching console output. Most severe dropouts occurred during the WARNINGS shown below. The DTMF chars appear to be falsing - no tones were sent.
