Jim, In asterisk, there are normally many ways to achieve the same thing. Don't make it more complicated if there is no need. Put your phone extensions in the radio control section. If you keep all the local extensions 4 digit and start with the same number, you can do something like this example... exten => 6XXX,1,Dial(sip/${EXTEN},20) ;dial ext on this box exten => 6XXX,2,VoiceMail(${EXTEN}) ;voicemail on noanswer That would be a statement that would cover all 4 digit extensions starting with a 6. my example has a voice-mail rollover. This way you do not need to define every extension. >From any extension you can dial the node number for the node you want to connect to. But to dial a phone extension from the repeater phone patch, you will need a similar/same line in the [radio] context. ...mike/kb8jnm > Mike, > > Thanks for the quick answer.. > > I have added extensions to the system using a Cisco SPA8000 > ATA.

strange courtesy tone (or I'm going insane)
by Bryan Fields 09 Feb '15

09 Feb '15

I've defined a local node (902) for testing my 902 MHz repeater. It's on PCIRADIO/1 and it's up and going on the test box. When I link it over to my node 40821, (224.28) it works come up and the repeater audio works as intended. However when using the 40821 node (ie input on 222.68) it has a courtesy tone added in only when the local node is linked. This tone is 6 fast beeps at 1800 hz (give or take what audacity says). I can't find it defined in my rpt.conf at all. I've really run out of ideas here, and think I might be going insane. I have audio of it up here http://keekles.org/~w9cr/40821%20wierd%20tone.wav Anyone have any ideas? -- Bryan Fields 727-409-1194 - Voice 727-214-2508 - Fax http://bryanfields.net

local rpt access via local extension?
by Jim Cook 09 Feb '15

09 Feb '15

Sorry if this is more of an Asterisk question.... I'm deep into learning how to set up an Allstar* system. Had configure allstar//asterisk (lots of google and fumbling around) so that I could access to my node via a local extension in the shack. In the process of switching from usbradio to simpleusb my edited extensions file was overwritten. (the custom stuff is now in custom/extensions.conf and I have backup copies !) This dial plan results in a warning message from app_rpt: We only accept links via IAX2, Echolink, TheLinkBox or local !! (context from custom/extensions.conf) [in-shack] exten => 6010,1,Dial(SIP/6010,60,rT) exten => 6020,1,Dial(SIP/6020,60,rT) exten => 6099,1,Goto(radio-secure,27739,1) How do I make extension 6099 'local' to app_rpt again? I can dial between the extensions but fail with reorder/fast busy on 6099.. I know I HAD it working at 2 am the other night! Thanks in advance for any pointers on how to get this working again.

Suitable PC For Limey

I must admit that in my business all I have a 20 pound sledge hammers when a picture frame hammer would work I did come across a working Dell Celeron 2.66GHz with 512mb of RAM. I know that SDD’s are preferred but well, I don’t want to buy anything during the testing phase. So let me just ask: will a Celeron 2.66GHz work as a small test hub?

While not familiar with the Pi2, I guess I have learned something. Never would have dreamed of a photo-sensitive chip outside of a eprom. Especially in the power supply area. They must use a on-chip led/photo transistor as a flip/flop toggle of the power. Opto-isolation. That would make sense. I have seen chips with just that but have not used them. A good lesson on new analog things to troubleshoot. All these micro-controllers are susceptible to digital rfi/rfp noise. Proper shielding your controller is still best practice regardless. Unless you like surprises that make you scratch your head. ...mike/kb8jnm > > Hi Mike & Everyone, > > My initial questions (and alarm) were if the RPi2 might be excessively > sensitive to external EMI---something like that can be really hard to deal > with around high RF environments. > > But, after reading more threads, it appears this issue is truly light > sensitivity in one of the switching PS chips (U16), due to how it's > encapsulated (or lack thereof!) in plastic.

Not having tested it specifically, I would find it plausible for a xenon flash in very close proximity to a micro-controller create a problem but only in this way... RFI/EMP burst during flash, a pulse being picked-up on circuits. If not RFI changing something directly in ram, EMP could just put a extra binary digit in a stream of data or a extra pulse in the clock line. The later in the clock line being most probable for a lock-up. Not from the flash of light. The broad pulse comes from it's ballast. The wires attached to it and the bulb act as a antenna. If it is a problem with a strobe light, I'll bet you could get a similar action from a close proximity GSM cell phone during certain phone actions. And I would also bet you could find that the Pi would not be the only type of micro-controller than can be affected by this type of thing. Not to worry, Shield your Pi like you should be doing in any case and provide sinks for RFI on all lines in and out of the shielded area. This would be normal protection in a RF hostile environment. Radio 101 - It should never be a real issue in a properly constructed repeater. ...mike/kb8jnm > > > Hi Everyone, > > I just saw this thread in another newsgroup.
