Is there a "Be Quiet" command?

I setup a script to re-transmit the ARRL Audio news on the club Allstar Node. Here is my question, is there a way to kill playback of a file, in case there is emergancy traffic during the news? I tried the Parrot Kill command with no effect. http://ki6psp.blogspot.com/2010/09/arrl-news-on-allstar-node.html -- KI6PSP (Ed)

Re: [App_rpt-users] How to add an IAX2 extension to call via radio

Hi Matt Many thanks for your answer. > With my SIP reverse autopatch I have set rpt.conf to have the DTMF > code *98 to key up the repeater by using cop,6 when I dial in. > > 98=cop,6 This option is enabled in my rpt.conf, is uncomment. But I think the problem may be in the Zoiper softphone. Maybe I need to try with iaxrpt softphone with PTT. I will post later, with my experiment on IAXRPT Thanks a lot for your answer.

> I think this is called a reverse autopatch - try searching on the qrvc > website to see if that helps you. Thanks a lot, I´ve made a few changes in my configuration to enable the autopach feature. But when i call from my IAX2 softphone to my node (27346) the radio don´t initialize the PTT when I speak from IAX2 softphone. The result, I have no audio in radio from IAX2 softphone. Its necesary to make some modifications in rpt.conf or usbradio_tune_usb.conf to enable de PTT from IAX2 to radio ? In my scenario I´m using the Zoiper IAX2 softphone. And a P2500 Teltronic radio. Thanks a lot Best regards Alex Casanova (EA5HJX) www.bicubik.net skype: alexbogus

I received my CM108 fobs yesterday. I ordered them from: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.21812 I haven't had much time to play with them yet, but the IC is a "blob" much like the cheapo Ebay fobs. Has anybody had the same problem? 73. Kyle K0KN

Yep! IAX rpt been working fine for me. Just upgraded it too. My op system here is win 2000. Works on my net book too on XP pro. Friend of mine had problem with W7 64 though. Something to do with sound drivers. Real handy for the 20 some nodes I look after. j On 10/2/2010 5:51 PM, Ken wrote: > Oho!

OK well I made the changes to IAX.conf and the portal server setting and works fine here. One thing I found though doing the bind thing is IAX_RPT wont connect to that node now. Not sure if its something to do with IAXRPT or do I have to change something else to get that working again? Perhaps Steve W9SH can comment on that. I am using a linksys WRT54GL router with DDWRT on it. Do you know it it will do PAT?? Would be nice to know.

how do I change default port from 4569 to 4568 on node?
by REDBUTTON_CTRL 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

Hi All, I know this has been asked before. I have 2 node boxes and would like to put both on the same router/IP. I would like to change the def port on one of the nodes to 4568 so I can operate both boxes. The first server has 4 nodes on it already and maxed out on the USB ports. So using second box to add an extra node. I remember somebody saying that a change must be made in the node and the folks at Allstar have to set something in the server? Please advise. Thanks.

Would this work?
by Keith 02 Oct '10

Hi all it's g7dnt Keith on nodes 2498 & 27333. I have used Ghost a disk clone tool to bit copy my Allstar node disk and the original 40gb disk was cloned on 10 minutes all tested and is now a backup of my system I have been asked to make a node replacement so can I; Clone my disk again and test as usual on my system then take the other Asterisk folder from the other Allstar node and over write my config. Then login and reset the root password to match the other persons node. At this point telephone the other node owner and get this node turned off. Once he has turned this node off then turn on the cloned node with that Allstar configuration folder at my location and test node 2259. Before I do the above I thought I would ask as the other node is 300 miles away and I am trying to help a node owner out in building a new node pc preconfigured that he could plug n go. Many thanks Keith G7DNT 2498 & 27333 Allstar 5503 IRLP and Echolink

Reverse autopatch / Icom 706MKIIG remote base?
by Neil Addis (WA5JXY) 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

Just curious if I fat-fingered something during the auto-patch setup. I can dial out ok. I cannot dial-in. (Well, I can call in, enter node, enter access code, it gives me the greeting that IF someone on the radio end answers I'll be connected, but then it times out and disconnects.) I never hear the incoming call announcement on the repeater. I tried bringing up the autopatch from the radio while I was on hold hoping it was just an announcement thing, but no luck. Any ideas? (Oh I am using the auto-config feature which I find OUTSTANDING!). THANKS to all who worked on the new scheme to get all of this working! I've been doing IT, Radio, and electronics for 36 years now and I appreciate the effort it takes to do this! (can you spell NOVELL ? - on floppys no less!). This stuff is very cool! (I still have 6 existing repeaters to convert to the new scheme!......just wish I could get my 706MKIIG to work with all of this. Anyone have a WORKING rpt.conf for remote base?) Neil
