get_config.php empty result
by iain macdonnell - N6ML 31 May '14

31 May '14

I'm new to AllStar Link, but not new to Linux and Asterisk. I already run an Asterisk 11 PBX at home. Ideally I'd like to incorporate AllStar Link into that, but to get started for now, I'm trying to get a separate installation with ACID working. It's failing to download my server config. It seems that others have reported problems in the last few weeks. Is it still b0rked? Seems that a config ID exists, but I can't actually get the contents of the config (just get an empty result): [root@test ~]# curl -k 'https://config.allstarlink.org/portal/_config/get_available_configs.php?use…<mypasswd>' <some_randomish_string>,N6ML [root@test ~]# curl -k 'https://config.allstarlink.org/portal/_config/get_config.php?config_id=<some_randomish_string>' [root@test ~]# curl -k 'https://config.allstarlink.org/portal/_config/get_config.php?username=N6ML&…<mypasswd>&config_id=<some_randomish_string>' [root@test ~]# Anyone have a server config (as produced by that php script) somewhere? I'd rather not have to reverse-engineer the entire pcf.sh script.... 73, ~iain / N6ML

need to exchange some email off line with a Limey Linux guru
by George Csahanin 31 May '14

31 May '14

I thought I had limey all figured out a couple of years back. Maybe not. Having massive issues to get it to compile. Went back to 1.0.7 which I was able to run before. Now fails in the first few lines. Also on another attempt xboard.mk file is complained about, wasn’t formatted right. Just all kinds of what always appear to be script file errors. When it actually compiles a source file that appears to go ok. But that is usually after lots of playing with some script of config file. Anyhow, anyone up for talking me thru these issues? Does buildroot have a problem? Somewhere I saw something about make version 3.82 being a problem, so backed down to 3.81, same thing. Tried using gmake, same thing.

Playing MP3 bulletins

>So... I've been researching several options, finally downloaded the asterisk-addons, and installed. The mp3 download of the ARRL News >plays, however, I'd >like to have the idtalkover=|i<call sign> function as well. I get the Morse Code id at the end of the ARRL News, but not >during at the defined interval. Any ideas? >Thanks, >Bob >kk6ecm ===== OK - I have reported hearing the talkover ID and other people say they don't hear it. It turns out everybody is right. After some experimenting, I found that the node that is playing does not talk-over, but all the connected nodes do (and that is where I often listen). That suggests that you could have an internal (no radio) node that did the playback and link it to the radio node(s). In that case you should hear the talk-over ID on all the connected radios. I do not know if the bulletin node needs to be on a separate PC, but I believe not. The bulletin playback node has no URI and uses: rxchannel = Zap/pseudo ; Rx audio/signalling channel Of course, the other ways to do it (previous postings) are: 1) Split the MP3 into segments and play them in sequence, using a Linux script, with whatever ID you want between the segments 2) Edit the audio file and insert the ID audio into the track itself (what I do) 73/GL Ken

Simplex link to a DR-1
by pete M 30 May '14

30 May '14

Hi guys. Got part of the Yaesu beta testing of there fusion system repeater. So I took there repeater and unconnected my old MSR-2000. The linking to the DR-1 seem a bit problematic, especialy if used in both digital and analog mode (auto switch). So I was thinking of using a small IC-F121S locally on a dummy load at the repeater site to act as the link on the analog side of the repeater, the IC-F121S will handle all the ctcss encoding/decoding. My problem is how should I program my node so that I wont have a tail nor any courtesy tone. But I want voice ID to work. I know that there are 2 duplex setting. one in the rpt.conf file the other is in usbradio.conf. Anyone can help me figure out what i need to do? one other thing, how can I stopp any message from connect/disconnect to my node aside the one initiated from my node. (already did it on the echolink side.) but want to do it on the allstar side.) Thanks for the help.. Pierre VE2PF

more on bulletin playback
by Ken 29 May '14

29 May '14

I am using politeid http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/128 and idtime as well. It seems to play a cw id right over the recording, without problems, and without any need to drop the carrier. But I always insert a voice ID every 10 minutes, or less, into the recording file anyway - usually in the place provided by the recording context. I also have a DTMF function where any user can stop the playback, if he needs to. I advertise this function periodically in tail messages. 73 Ken > -----Original Message----- > From: Buddy Brannan [mailto:buddy@brannan.name] > Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2014 2:46 PM > To: Ken > Cc: app_rpt mailing list > Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] App_rpt-users Digest, Vol 63, Issue 54 > > The only problem with playing a long file continuously like this (for instance, > using asterisk -rx "rpt localplay 2331 foo" > > is that the repeater won't ID until the file finishes playing.

>You might want to look at mp3splt to cut it up into manageable chunks. >Unless you turn the TX time out off, you're going need to drop PTT now and then to reset the timer. -- Another possibility is to use a script to put the machine in "bulletin mode" where the time out timer is disabled or at least set to a long time. The same script turns the TOT back on again at the end (so you don't forget). 73 Ken

by George Csahanin 26 May '14

26 May '14

My memory is telling me that in a limey install it is possible to re-compile from the source. Just tried it and fails claiming cannot find g++ Didn’t this used to work? Is something missing from busybox?? GeorgeC George J Csahanin W2DB Cedar Park, TX 512-401-2630 home 401-338-0568 cel
