Try the 3.8 kernel that comes with Angstrom (delivered on the device) or in the Debian image for BBB. I too am working on this (slowly with other things going on this summer) Tom ka6sox

Inbound from TLB
by Robert Garcia 06 Jul '13

06 Jul '13

All, I am having an issue with connectivity from TLB to app_rpt. Outbound connectivity from app_rpt works fine between the same nodes. When I attempt to connect from TLB to app_rpt, the asterisk console streams many of these same messages. [Jul 6 10:34:38] WARNING[21006]: chan_tlb.c:1362 TLB_xwrite: Cannot handle frames in 2 format [Jul 6 10:34:38] WARNING[21006]: chan_tlb.c:1362 TLB_xwrite: Cannot handle frames in 2 format Any ideas on what might be going wrong?

Phrases with "localplay"
by Robert Garcia 06 Jul '13

06 Jul '13

All, Is it possible to pass multiple filenames to localplay to say a phrase? I have attempted to separate the filenames with commas, semi-colons, and spaces without any luck. Is it only possible to pass multiple localplay commands to accomplish this? Robert N5QM

Beagle Bone Black and URI?
by Jim Kutsch, KY2D 05 Jul '13

05 Jul '13

So, before I start reinventing the wheel, has anyone gotten app-rpt to run on the Beagle Bone Black with a DMK URI radio interface? I did a search and didn't find anything newer than the Beagle Board X with LOXX interface. 73, Jim, KY2D, node 2396

Issue with Hangup after first keying
by Joshua Hintze 05 Jul '13

05 Jul '13

Hello, It is my first posting on here. I have ALMOST gotten the ACID installation working. I'm using the URI interfaced to ACID and to my radio. The asterisk can properly key the radio and its working just fine with that. I can also connect to the node with iaxRpt directly with no problem and transmit OUT of my radio. However I am having some issues when my radio receives communication in that as soon as I get my first radio RX, asterisk will then play a tone out of the URI into the radio over and over again at about a one second interval. In the asterisk terminal it just keeps repeating: -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-1726358622' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-1774817359' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-691532115' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-81389311' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-465154784' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-627058532' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-1656870264' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-1671691803' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-50274194' forever keeping my radio always keyed. I have the COR from the radio going into the URI. I do not plan on using CTCSS and have tried tying it to ground as well as tying it to the COR as well. My usbradio.conf has the following: carrierfrom=usb ctcssfrom=no I have tried also ctcssfrom=usb as well. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Josh

Echolink Connection

Hi, I'm struggling with connection to Echolink. I can see similar problems have occurred to others on the list, but I can't see a solution identified. My log contains: [Jul 4 14:04:20] ERROR[2532] chan_echolink.c: Error in parsing header on server1.echolink.org [Jul 4 14:04:40] ERROR[2532] chan_echolink.c: connect() failed to connect to the Echolink server server2.echolink.org [Jul 4 14:04:40] ERROR[2530] chan_echolink.c: connect() failed to connect to the Echolink server server2.echolink.org [Jul 4 14:04:40] ERROR[2532] chan_echolink.c: Unable to connect to directory server server2.echolink.org [Jul 4 14:05:00] ERROR[2532] chan_echolink.c: Error in parsing header on server3.echolink.org UDP ports 5198 and 5199 are forwarded.

Small System Recommendations
by Robert Garcia 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

All, I am looking for recommendations on small, preferably inexpensive, systems that are capable of running on 12v to take advantage of the redundant power systems at our sites. I would like it to support at least two nodes running simpleusb as I don't need the DSP processing capabilities. The idea is that these systems would be connected to a port on an existing controller. I expect that HP thin clients are going to be my best bet, but there seem to be many different models so I don't know where to begin. Suggestions or thoughts? Robert N5QM

Stuck Booting
by Robert Garcia 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Guys, doing another install on newer hardware with ACID. The install with the CD completes but the first boot fails. The splash screen comes up and then it gets stuck at the "Booting CentOS" screen. It is a dell machine with a C2D processor, so nothing too recent. Any ideas? Robert N5QM

Outbound
by Harold Kinchelow 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hello all I recently had to rebuild my system due to a badly failed hard drive which wasnt that big of a deal. What I am experiencing now is, I cant make any outbound connections. I have followed everything on the ohn site as far as troubleshooting this type of issue with no results. I seem to register on the servers ok since I seem my node in the nodes list. But one thing I did notice is, the site mentions a file called rpt_extnodes should be in /var/lib/asterisk folder but I do not see this, even after multuple restarts of asterisk and rebooting of the system which I suspect is my issue. Where to next? Im at a lost now. Thanks all Harold K7ILO

Re: [App_rpt-users] [Bulk] Issue with Hangup after first keying
by Joshua Hintze 04 Jul '13

Thank you for all the suggestions thus far. I'm using an ICOM IC-A110 VHF radio. I was able to find some schematics/block diagrams in the service manual here: http://elektrotanya.com/icom_ic-a110,_a110e_service_manual.pdf/download.html This is my first time trying to dig through a radio and find a COR. I'm not sure either where to get a discriminator audio signal either. Josh -----Original Message----- From: Bryan D.

I think I might have figured it out. It turns out my COR signal might not necessarily be the best COR signal. It looks like the signal goes high on BOTH RX and TX.

Can you get discriminator audio?? If so, you can use dsp to derive COR; otherwise, you need to look elsewhere.

In all the machines I've built the most complex interface has been a pullup resistor on the DB25 connector. And that's for everything from a micor to wouxun HTs to maxtracs and gtx's and systel, and ALinco radio-based repeaters. And throw in a couple GE rigs (Mastr-IIs) along the way. Heck, I even interfaced a TR-33C as a receiver in a pinch. > In the meantime I tried carrierfrom=vox but it didn't really seem to work.
