Registration issues
by Thor Wiegman 30 Nov '15

30 Nov '15

Tonight I had a user tell me that one of my nodes wouldn't connect anywhere. Verified, rebooted the server, still nothing. Tried running the rc.updatenodelist script manually and it just sits there. However, after running the following command I do get an update and can now connect to other nodes. /usr/bin/wget -O /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodeshttp://nodes1.allstarlink.org/cgi-bin/nodes.pl When I checked two other nodes they had the same problem and same work-around. I ran that same command for nodes2 and it works. When I run it for nodes3 it times out. Could a problem with nodes3.allstarlink.org be causing the rc.updatenodelist script to choke? And could that have been causing my nodes to not be able to connect to others?

Back about 3 to 6 weeks ID Scripts
by Loren Tedford 31 May '15

31 May '15

I wrote about 3-6 weeks ago stating i needed help with doing id scripts for my repeater I thought i had the basic understanding to do this from reading online but its been a big failure.. So.. How does everyone else do this I take it most must be relying on hardware based controllers since Asterisk is not capable of running the audio scripts correctly?? Im lost really could use guidance..

I would also like to know if anyone has written any php code to do this.. just checking before I do it.. never like to re-invent the wheel.. thanks..

Thanks to those that replied. The docs did help. But I am still struggling with the uplink functionality to the area. Every time the All-Star system keys the repeater, the receiver seems to quit during the push to talk duration. It is almost like it is half duplex. If anyone has actually interfaces on to. URI, I would love to chat with you. Thanks. Lu Vencl KA4EPS

RPi2 Allstar Audio Quirk.
by Keith Goobie 30 May '15

30 May '15

Good day Alll! We have a two node system using the RPi2,a and the latest Compton WA3DSP code (with many thanks). Here is the anomaly we are experiencing and we are seeking guidance and input to remove the issue. After a user unkeys, he/she will hear about a second of their voice during the tail time. This occurs when a node is connected and not connected to other nodes. Something is feedback the audio. I am willing to share the config files with those that can assist in triaging this issue. Thanks in advance. Keith -- keith(a)goobie.org Keith Goobie Richmond Hill, ON, CANADA

trouble with ID repeating
by pjg 29 May '15

29 May '15

Hi, I have a simplex node that is used to allow Zoiper and other private nodes access to a local simplex frequency. The problem I have is once someone has transmitted on the node or an astres.sh has been executed, the node will continue to transmit an ID every 10 minutes as long as there is activity on the simplex frequency. This will continue even though the node has not transmitted again. The following is a status showing that the ID state is clean.After receiving activity, the ID state is marked as QUEUED FOR CLEANUP. The node will continue to ID as long as there is RX activity on the frequency.Once there is a 10 minute period of silence on the frequency, the node will stop sending the ID even if the frequency again becomes busy. Any help will be appreciated, Paul BBBroip1*CLI> rpt stats 223 ************************ NODE 223 STATISTICS ************************* Selected system state............................: 0 Signal on input..................................: NO System...........................................: ENABLED Parrot Mode......................................: DISABLED Scheduler........................................: ENABLED Tail Time........................................: STANDARD Time out timer...................................: ENABLED Incoming connections.............................: ENABLED Time out timer state.............................: RESET Time outs since system initialization............: 0 Identifier state.................................: CLEAN Kerchunks today..................................: 0 Kerchunks since system initialization............: 0 Keyups today.....................................: 1 Keyups since system initialization...............: 37 DTMF commands today..............................: 0 DTMF commands since system initialization........: 0 Last DTMF command executed.......................: N/A TX time today....................................: 00:00:05.735 TX time since system initialization..............: 00:04:25.154 Uptime...........................................: 131:09:38 Nodes currently connected to us..................: 201 Autopatch........................................: ENABLED Autopatch state..................................: DOWN Autopatch called number..........................: N/A Reverse patch/IAXRPT connected...................: DOWN User linking commands............................: ENABLED User functions...................................: ENABLED Node Variable dump for node 223: RPT_RXKEYED=1 RPT_TXKEYED=0 RPT_NUMLINKS=1 RPT_LINKS=1,T201 RPT_NUMALINKS=1 RPT_ALINKS=1,201TU RPT_ETXKEYED=0 RPT_AUTOPATCHUP=0 -- 8 variables Node Variable dump for node 223: RPT_ETXKEYED=1 RPT_RXKEYED=1 RPT_TXKEYED=0 RPT_NUMLINKS=1 RPT_LINKS=1,T201 RPT_NUMALINKS=1 RPT_ALINKS=1,201TU RPT_AUTOPATCHUP=0 -- 8 variables Node Variable dump for node 223: RPT_RXKEYED=0 RPT_ETXKEYED=1 RPT_TXKEYED=0 RPT_NUMLINKS=1 RPT_LINKS=1,T201 RPT_NUMALINKS=1 RPT_ALINKS=1,201TU RPT_AUTOPATCHUP=0 -- 8 variables Node Variable dump for node 223: RPT_ETXKEYED=0 RPT_RXKEYED=0 RPT_TXKEYED=0 RPT_NUMLINKS=1 RPT_LINKS=1,T201 RPT_NUMALINKS=1 RPT_ALINKS=1,201TU RPT_AUTOPATCHUP=0 -- 8 variables BBBroip1*CLI> rpt stats 223 ************************ NODE 223 STATISTICS ************************* Selected system state............................: 0 Signal on input..................................: NO System...........................................: ENABLED Parrot Mode......................................: DISABLED Scheduler........................................: ENABLED Tail Time........................................: STANDARD Time out timer...................................: ENABLED Incoming connections.............................: ENABLED Time out timer state.............................: RESET Time outs since system initialization............: 0 Identifier state.................................: QUEUED FOR CLEANUP Kerchunks today..................................: 0 Kerchunks since system initialization............: 0 Keyups today.....................................: 1 Keyups since system initialization...............: 37 DTMF commands today..............................: 0 DTMF commands since system initialization........: 0 Last DTMF command executed.......................: N/A TX time today....................................: 00:00:05.735 TX time since system initialization..............: 00:04:25.154 Uptime...........................................: 131:09:56 Nodes currently connected to us..................: 201 Autopatch........................................: ENABLED Autopatch state..................................: DOWN Autopatch called number..........................: N/A Reverse patch/IAXRPT connected...................: DOWN User linking commands............................: ENABLED User functions...................................: ENABLED -- Remote UNIX connection disconnected

Beagle Board Sound Slightly OT
by Steve Zingman 27 May '15

27 May '15

Since the example I point to does not need external sound hardware to stream, I'm not sure what the question is.

My question is regarding the hardware and specifically the Beagle Board without sound versus the Beagle Board DVI-D with built-in sound. I know how to stream ? the company that I work for provides streaming servers to consumers. I?ve just never used the BBB with or without DVI-D. I don? know which one can be used, I have USB plugin sound cards. Will they work?

scripts/extensions.conf
by Don Russell 27 May '15

27 May '15

I'm helping a local club get their new allstar node commissioned. It's on air node 42069 Reinbeck, IA. We are now looking to extend features. I'm looking to see if you would share with me some of your scripts and extensions.conf additions. Looking to not reinvent the wheel. I've got a few of my old scripts, but I'm interested in seeing what cool things you all are doing with your nodes. Would like option to record/re-record the ID, an announcement like upcoming hamfest or event. reverse patch auth and announcement of callers. I would like to get the script for downloading and playback of AR Newsline. One of you had one that would download it chop it up, playback, pause, id, continue...rinse repeat. Have any of you been messing with the newer high quality festival voices? Looking for a cepstral alternative that is good. I want to get the wxscripts going, and have a weather net mode we can switch into. Anything script wise for automating common allstar/asterisk tasks, rotating announcements, changing modes, controlling a remote base 857D. I'm going to try and compile up the info and get this system polished up and humming right along. If you could send them off-list that would be fantastic. Thanks and 73! -- Don Russell W9DRR
