Allstar Autopatch questions:
by Mark Johnston 04 May '13

Hello everyone, A few questions about the autopatch service that allstar offers for $5/mo. Does 911 work correctly? The number / area code the call seems to come from would say I would end up with something in California if it works at all... If not does anyone know if typically, there would be a 10 digit # one could program to dial in most areas to get the same psap? If one needed to have a local number is that an option? If not does anyone know how to setup other providers (voip like) that would work? Thanks, Mark (KC7DMF) node 28344

Voter/RTCM is less poo-ey now

The new (version 1.14) firmware, that will be available via SVN starting at 2:15 PM PDT today, seems to be working in non-GPS mode. It seems to be "safe" to use the "latest" again. Jim

RTCM/Voter firmware
by Jim Duuuude 03 May '13

I seem to have "poo-ed" non-GPS-locked operation of the Voter/RTCM firmware, while vastly improving GPS-locked operation. I will fix this shortly, but whatever you do, don't upgrade to the latest, unless you happen to want some real peace and quiet on your radio channel :-) :-). Jim WB6NIL
