Re: [App_rpt-users] Node 27620 courtesy tone

Look under /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf nounkeyct= Submitted by hwstar on Sat, 06/13/2009 - 15:07 The nounkeyct node stanza key completely disables the courtesy tone. This is useful for eliminating TX time in applications using simplex uplinks to repeaters on the repeater pair itself (a practice which which should be strongly discouraged). Ref: http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/109 -- KI6PSP (Ed) Can one of you experts out there point me to the file I need to edit to turn off the courtesy tone? I turned it off in the Allstar link VOIP portal several days ago and have rebooted several times but the tone is still there. I have been searching the files with WINSCP3 but have not seen anything about the courtesy tone. Thanks Jim wd0ekr

I have 2 Allstar nodes 2498 & 27333. They work well and all is great. I have a router that allows the ports required for translation and I can ping www.google.com no problems. I logged onto the Allstar site and can see my nodes are in green. I have to wait 10-15 minutes once my nodes are on for any node to connect. If I try a connection with in this 10-15 minute window I get a failed connection. I have set DNS a 2 static addresses both with live TTL addresses and on boot can ping both IP addresses. Any ideas please Cheers Keith G7DNT Ipswich UK K Handscombe www.handscombe.co.uk

The shutdown is the URI itself, it simply shuts off. No LEDs, no audio, no activity.

DMK URI and Segfault
by Pawlowski, Adam 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

Afternoon, I've been working on setting up a simplex node using a DMK URI and a HTX-212, and I have many things I need to iron out. I've found I have some sort of trouble going on, when the PTT is keyed, in a varying but, often short period of time, the unit shuts off. The cable is still open and unshielded, so I imagine this to probably be the source of that problem. Outside of this, I can't see any good way to reset the device without hanging the system. If I pull the unit, it recognizes that it is gone, but, re-attaching it causes the machine to lock hard with some display on the screen that seems to be in reference to this device or USB something-or-other. This is on my desktop, ACID Linux, i7 870, Intel Extreme motherboard. Has anyone had this one happen? Obviously, I'd prefer not to unplug it anyways, but, with the troubleshooting, it seems I must do so. Adam KC2YQF Also, it seems the kickstart script looks for /dev/hda to start with, mine are all sXX drives, which seemed to work out anyways, it picked "sdd" using some process I'm not sure of. It also did me the favor of eliminating the partition table on all of my other drives, which, while recoverable, wasn't particularly thrilling.

Hello Adam, Would be tempted to suggest time out timer on the HTX but with a varying time probably not. When you say shuts down, do you mean the transmitter? If so is the PTT led on the URI still on?

Not showing up on Echolink
by Mark Phillips 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

Hi Folks, I rebuilt my node yesterday onto a 1.6GHz platform (up from a 500MHz Alix box) and all seems to be well except that I don't seem to be showing up on Echolink. I've enabled Echolink in the web server gui and can see my settings reflected in the echolink.conf file - so why am I not there? -- /\/\ark Phillips

GPS error message

I have not got the GPS enabled per the WWW config page but I _do_ have the static APRS enabled. I realise that the same app that controls the APRS also controls the GPS but why am I getting this message? [Mar 10 06:22:04] WARNING[2355]: app_gps.c:364 gpsthread: GPS timeout Thanks -- /\/\ark Phillips

GPSD feature request
by Mark Phillips 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

Hi, Can we add support for GPS positioning to be pulled from GPSD? Many of us use GPS for all sorts of jobs around the shack and GPSD is the perfect tool to make our GPS info available on the LAN for other apps to pick up. A single GPS RX could feed multiple services (AllStar, D-RATS, SDR logging etc) from a single GPSD instance. Thanks Mark G7LTT/NI2O -- /\/\ark Phillips
