Re: [App_rpt-users] Allstar node 42493 online but can't register - Please Help

Hi, Thanks for your advice. I can ping register.allstarlink.org ok. It resolves to 67.215.233.178 and ping takes 144ms so DNS is fine. M1AIF - Dean Crowe dean(a)m1aif.uk

SSH and WiFi dongles
by Te Bussell 08 Mar '16

08 Mar '16

Hi, 1. I bought the Element 14 wifi dongle with my pi 2. It works great with the default PI NOOBS software. I configured it to use my network password. This same dongle is not recognized on Windows, and not by Dial Debian. Could I copy the configuration file from NOOBS and insert it into Dial? 2. I have been searching for the method to connect Putty to Dial on PI. I was a whiz at running remote servers with Telnet before I retired. This one simple bit is not easily discovered. Do I need to use wget to install SSH on Dial, or is it already in place? Minds become a little rusty when you get away from a life's work. Thanks for your help.

Asterisk / app_rpt as tone remote adapter?
by Apu 08 Mar '16

08 Mar '16

Back in 2013, Thor Wiegman had asked about using Asterisk / app_rpt with tone remotes. Has anyone done this? Using a regular tone remote deskset to interface with app_rpt instead of a SIP phone and DTMF commands would be great for user-friendliness. http://ohnosec.org/pipermail/app_rpt-users/2013-October/007459.html -- Apu <apu(a)spfld.com>

Starting my node
by Te Bussell 08 Mar '16

Hi, Earlier today it appeared that my node was connected and recognized. There was still work to do with the radio config. I had to shut down the PI for a few hours. I started it again this evening, but the network does not see it. I stopped and started Asterisk, but that does not seem to help. Anyone? Cheers 73 Bill KB9WKR Sent from my iPad

Inexpensive 50MHz RX was: MP3 stream was remote

Ah well, we keep fishing through new ideas for workable stuff! The site in question is plenty remote, but I'll still put a notch on the image, and on the local pager and FM radio station too, even though they are 10km away. It's no work at all to put a coax stub notch on something. Cheapie Baofengs with some coax bandpass/notch reject will do it, EXCEPT that the repeater is question is Six meters. Now looking for inexpensive 6m handhelds, or other RX boards. S

Configuration
by Steve Mahler 06 Mar '16

06 Mar '16

Good morning! I continue to make progress standing up my server (42316 / ACID Distro). The next item is Repeater Modes. Think in terms of "normal operations" or "emergency operations". I want user controls to switch between Repeater Modes. This has generated the following questions. 1) The "5" lead in character points to the MACRO Stanza. I get that. Can I have a second lead in character like "A" that goes to a different macro stanza? 2) In rpt.conf each command seems to go to a single action. Can you have multiple step commands (other than macros)? Are there APP_RPT variables that are Readable / Changeable with accompanying flow control syntax? Are there User assignable variables? 3) In extensions.conf you can chain commands, do some if-then-goto-label. Is there a linkage that allows a command from rpt.conf to link to a dialed extension number in extensions.conf? The sledding is a little tough, but so far the software seems reliable. ...STeve - KF5VH

LSNODES
by Jamey Wright 06 Mar '16

06 Mar '16

I have the LSNODES ( I think that is what it is called ) web pages running on my nodes. Where does it get the information it displays about connected nodes? Is it a file on the local machine? I have a couple of private nodes that are connected and I would like to be able to see a little more info about the nodes that are connected. Thanks Jamey WR4JW
