Pierre, You will need the Microchip's PICkit3 In-Circuit Debugger/Programmer and the MPLAB IDE programming software. Both are available from MicroChip. https://www.microchip.com/Developmenttools/ProductDetails/PartNo/PG164130 This is a very helpful Wiki that will help get started. https://wiki.allstarlink.org/wiki/RTCM_Client Mark Guibord Micro-Node International From: App_rpt-users [mailto:app_rpt-users-bounces@lists.allstarlink.org] On Behalf Of Pierre Martel Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2018 5:08 PM To: APP RPT Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] DSPIC33FJ128GP802 programing Forgot to say that I have acces to a chipkit3 (from a friend) Le dim. 22 juil. 2018 à 20:07, Pierre Martel <petem001(a)gmail.com> a écrit : I am building myself a few voter board and I have no clue how to program the pic in it. Anyone have done it and could point me in the right direction? I have some arduino uno here and some nano's RPI as well, so if they can be used to program the chip I should be ok to do.

Private Node - Connection Failed
by Jim Aspinwall No1PC 22 Jul '18

22 Jul '18

Good news - some struggle over. I just built two fresh ASL nodes, updated, upgraded - private for now. Now I want one of my working ASL/public nodes to also be accessible as a private node. I assume for both the existing public node and new separate private node all I need to do is... In /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf on the existing node, add lines: [nodes] ; 1085 is the new/added private node number for existing public node1085 = radio(a)127.0.0.1/1085,NONE,y ; 1002 is the new private node1002 = radio(a)192.168.10.96/1002,NONE,y In /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf on the new private node (same network), add lines: [nodes] ; 1085 is the new/added private node number for existing public node on same LAN1085 = radio(a)192.168.10.76/1085,NONE,y ; 1002 is this new private node 192.168.10.96 on LAN)1002 = radio(a)127.0.0.1/1002,NONE,y What if any additional context/extension or other parameters need to be setup in which file?? What else do the nodes need to know about each other to communicate and establish connection? What am I missing? I should be able to issue a connect from 1002 to 1085, and vice versa - yes?

Re: [App_rpt-users] Echolink timeout
by John Rudolph- N2YP 21 Jul '18

I've tried pinging them all includeding echolink.org from my node server, my cellphone via WiFi, my cell via Verizon, my laptop and all my pings come back as 10,000+ ms pings or completely lost packets. I'm guessing this is causing the issue. If I use a website to do the ping it goes quick which I find interesting since I've tried it on two different networks, Spectrum-Time Warner and Verizon. Does anyone else this problem when trying to ping echolink? Is it possible it's a regional issue? I've tried echolink.org, naeast.echolink. org, nasouth.echolink.org, servers.echolink.org, aprs.echolink.org. John Rudolph Amateur Radio Op N2YP Unadilla,NY

Fwd: echolink

-------- Original Message -------- From: Doug Crompton <wa3dsp(a)gmail.com> Sent: July 20, 2018 1:26:37 AM EDT To: John Rudolph- N2YP <John(a)n2yp.com> Subject: echolink John, I just wanted to let you know there are significant bugs in both allstar and in particular the echolink channel driver that have been corrected in the hamvoip release. You would experience many crashes over time in ASL with Echolink. Not sure why you are using ASL but wanted to make you aware that little if anything has been done on that code in over 4 years. In contrast the hamvoip code has gone through a tremendous change over that time period. It is extremely stable now includes IRLP and many other enhancements. There have been over 100 updates in the last year alone and all online, no need to reprogram anything. Of course at the moment it runs on a Pi which should be adequate for all but the most extreme applications. We have hubs with 50 or more users, Echolink, and IRLP running on Pi's. We will have a PC version soon. Right now hamvoip is about 70% of the Allstar market and growing. hamvoip.org *73 Doug* *WA3DSP* *http://www.crompton.com/hamradio <http://www.crompton.com/hamradio>*

Re: [App_rpt-users] iaxrpt
by John Rudolph- N2YP 20 Jul '18

I've tried a few apps to try and isolate the bad line looking at returns and things without success. It's not from using Windows to copy as i had the problem right out of the box and many others have had the same issue. It will work for iaxrpt on a phone and not the computer or vice versa. I've had it happen to people using HamVOIP, Dial, and ASL 1.01 so it must be in the original file. Why it works on one version of iaxrpt and not the other I don't know but on Facebook groups and local friends at least a dozen have had the problem. I suspect many have the issue and don't realize it or give up in frustration and use the one that works. Ultimately it's probably something that needs to be fixed in the distributions. It drove me nuts for weeks until I figured it out by retyping the stanzas in iax.conf John Rudolph Amateur Radio Op N2YP Unadilla,NY
