Telemetry question
by Corey Dean 29 Aug '14

29 Aug '14

A while back someone posted this is an email but I can't find it... There was a setting in the rpt.conf file that would allow local telemetry only. Basically I want to hear all the local connects and disconnects but I do not wish to hear all the remote ones. I had this setup on my portable node, but have since wiped the system. It was the only system I did not have a backup off.. It was two different settings I had to use. Could someone please post those setting again. Corey N3FE

RTCM questions
by Tom Caspar 29 Aug '14

29 Aug '14

I've been playing with a few RTCM's for a couple weeks now, getting a feel for the system, and looking to use them in a voting setup. I have a couple questions hopefully someone may be able to assist with. I'm currently running 1 node with 3 voted receives on an old core2 duo machine I had sitting around. For my target application I'm looking at setting up 8 nodes each with 5 voted receives and trying to get a feel for if the computer I'm using will still be adequate. Second, is a small anomaly I've come across but have yet to be able to repeatedly duplicate. A user keys up, I'll see the receiver selected with full strength when monitoring asterisk but no one hears the transmission. So far only once I've had this happen while in view of the RTCM and transmitter, the red TX led was lit on the RTCM, but my transmitter wasn't being keyed. I don't know if audio was present on the audio output. Is there anything that could cause the TX led to light but the PTT output to not pull low? Is there any debug info I should be watching that might help in tracking this down? Third, what is the diode calibration? I've searched extensively for what its affect is and the exact procedure for doing it, but come up with nothing other than turning SW2-3 on will perform the diode calibration. Is the only requirement that the RTCM is powered up? Lastly, I was hoping to also be able to use this with some DMR radios running in analog. Unfortunately the raw rx audio coming out of the radio rolls off a 4khz, and does not seem to have enough high frequency noise content for the voting to work correctly. Has anyone successfully been able to do this? Thanks, Tom Caspar

Audio levels
by Robert Newberry 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

When I set my repeater up I used the automated method with a calibrated service monitor. I noticed it called for 3 kHz of audio. Finally got the repeater on the air and the audio is a little soft compared what I'm used to. I know I can adjust it but I assume this is done for a reason to keep all of the repeaters sounding close to each other. Any thoughts?

A Strange VoIP Experience
by Bob 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

I know this is off topic, but I suspect this list may have someone who can explain a recent VoIP experience, or perhaps provide a vector to someone who can. I have a single public IP from my ISP with a single router. Connected at the time were my Allstar nodes, Win7 PC, iPad Air, and VoIP phone (Ooma). I called my sister on her iPhone using my VoIP (Ooma) connection. She did a dial back based on my call to the VoIP number. The VoIP connection did not respond, but my iPad Air did, and we were both instantly in a Facetime chat, but without video. We are mystified by this experience; how her call got routed to my iPad Air (not to my phone connected to the VoIP box), and how the Facetime app was selected on both Apple devices. Thanks, Bob kk6ecm
