My nodes 27365 and 27751 both on same server is showing on the status page but not showing in the rpt_extnodes on other nodes im using standard port 4569. we have been seeing this with several nodes in our group over past month or so of coarse if we define in the rpt file we can connect but would be nice if it was registering. sometimes it may show up in a few hours or a day generally a reboot and its gone again Thanks for any help in advance 73 Randy KB3HJC

Radio Console
by John Locke 20 Nov '13

20 Nov '13

I'm trying to develop a TAXI radio dispatch application. Something like this: http://www.motorolasolutions.com/US-EN/Business+Product+and+Services/Dispat… I have 3 radios (with different private frecuencies) connected to the asterisk with 3 URI interfaces. The basic features of app_rpt and iaxrpt are working OK. Now, the problems... 1) Sometimes i need to talk to 2 or 3 of the radio channels at the same time. With the iaxrpt I can select and talk to only one radio, only one active call. 2) Also, i need to listen to the audio of the 3 calls (base radios), not only the selected call. Sadly, i can't open iaxrpt multiple instances in the same PC... 3) Is there any way i can detect wich taxi is talking to the radio? I'm a programmer, but I'm a newbie in the radio field. It would be great if any of you can sell me some consulting hours to accomplish this project. Thanks in advance John

Compile Errors
by Robert Garcia 28 Sep '13

28 Sep '13

Guys, I am working on compiling app_rpt for another platform using the sources from svn and following the makefile. It looks like I am going to need some help as I am already stuck at configuring zaptel. lol gcc -o menuselect menuselect.o strcompat.o menuselect_stub.o mxml/libmxml.a mxml/libmxml.a make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/tc/zaptel/menuselect' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/tc/zaptel/menuselect' *********************************************************** The existing menuselect.makeopts file did not specify that 'zttool' should not be included. However, either some dependencies for this module were not found or a conflict exists. Either run 'make menuselect' or remove the existing menuselect.makeopts file to resolve this issue. *********************************************************** make: *** [menuselect.makeopts] Error 255 I then nuked the menuselect.makeopts per the error and tried again, I get a little further before receiving this error. make -C /lib/modules/3.0.21-tinycore/build ARCH=i386 SUBDIRS=/usr/src/zaptel/kernel HOTPLUG_FIRMWARE=yes KBUILD_OBJ_M="zaptel.o ztdummy.o ztdynamic.o zttranscode.o " modules make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/linux-headers-3.0.21-tinycore' CC [M] /usr/src/zaptel/kernel/zaptel-base.o In file included from /usr/src/zaptel/kernel/zaptel-base.c:37:0: /usr/src/zaptel/kernel/zconfig.h:26:28: fatal error: linux/autoconf.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make[3]: *** [/usr/src/zaptel/kernel/zaptel-base.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [_module_/usr/src/zaptel/kernel] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/linux-headers-3.0.21-tinycore' make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/zaptel' make: *** [all] Error 2 make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/zaptel' Oddly, the linux/autoconf.h file is there, so I'm not sure what path is the base.

Re: [App_rpt-users] Access Command Mode With A Macro
by Johnny Keeker 01 Aug '13

01 Aug '13

The question is, can a macro be created to connect to a node and then put it in the command mode? I've tried creating the usual macro example. [macro] 1=*325555*425555# *51 only calls the 25555 node yet it does not take into account the *425555

Re: [App_rpt-users] RTCM simple mode to voting

Oh, I misunderstood you. It thought by 'simple mode' you meant simpleUSB. There is no such mode as 'simple voting'. You have to have a GPS for voting. -- Tim :wq On Jul 31, 2013, at 12:06 PM, Michael Hebert <mhebert1975(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Tim, > > Thank you for the quick response.

RTCM simple mode to voting
by Michael Hebert 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

All, I am trying to convert my system from simple mode to voting. I wanted to check to make sure that I make all the appropriate changes. Here is my setup. Main node Asterisk server running ACID Kenwood TKR-820 repeater RTCM Garmin 18x GPS LVC Voter node Kenwood TKR-820 repeater RTCM Garmin 18x GPS LVC I changed the voter.conf to reflect the changes [28304] KD5DFB_main=pass1,transmit KD5DFB_voter=pass2 thresholds=255,110-5 linger=6 Do i just need to add master statement to KD5DFB_main? Also, do I need to change menu 10 on the RTCM to 0? Any help please!

Re: [App_rpt-users] Voter RTCM TX buffer hardware limitation?
by Harshad Rangarajan 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

As of now I am still looking for any people to tell me if lowering the minimum TX buffer RTCM will allow is possible at all. My system is so close to having the low latency I need, I just need a tiny less! I know that there are MANY others who would love to see RTCM voting capability to be this fast, and the current capabilities are very close! I look forward to any response about this. -Harshad P.S. Thank you Jim and Tim! ----- Original Message ----- From: Harshad Rangarajan Sent: 07/28/13 07:09 PM To: app_rpt-users(a)ohnosec.org Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Voter RTCM TX buffer hardware limitation? Jim, I do not expect zero latency. I understand that DSP has latency no matter what. I do not expect zero latency from the system, I am just curious if there is any way to lower the minimum TX buffer in the RTCM below 800. At 800, the latency is very, very close to acceptable for my use. We currently have a hilltop UHF repeater that is linked via 420MHZ to other VHF repeater in next county. People often talk full-duplex between the two, so they are listen to the repeater output while they talk. This is also very common amongst other local linked systems. If someone else talk at the same time on the VHF, their voices mix like a conference call. This has proved to be very useful to everyone. You ask what repeater we use? UHF repeater is TKR-850 and VHF repeater is a Micor base.

DTMF Variables
by Robert Garcia 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

All, Is it possible to pass a variable via DTMF to a macro? Let me explain my goal.. Private Node <-> Public Hub I would like a user on the private node to be able to link or unlink the hub node without having to go through the *4 remote command process to do it. In practice, I would like to use a macro like *5329728 from the Private Node and have the Public Hub connect to node 29728, is this possible? Robert N5QM
