Playing message from HUB to permanently connected links after system inactivity
by motorula＠gmail.com 24 Mar '13

24 Mar '13

Hi! Could somebody please help me to make central hub to play random prerecorded messages over links, which are permanently connected to it, after 10 minutes of the whole system inactivity? Telemdefault=0 everywhere as i dont want any preset voice announcements to be played at all and don't know how to customise them. Is it possible to customise connected/disconnected announcements with prerecorded announcement which would be different for each node? Thanks! Yuri, RU3AID

Tie GPIO_1 to PTT
by 41.2 Jim 24 Mar '13

24 Mar '13

First I must thank all the members for the help in the past, just in case I didn't thank you ALL. Q: I would like to use a GPIO pin for a cooling fan, have it run with the PTT and maybe stay on for a minute after PTT drops. I'm sure this has already been asked, so if you could point me to the answering post/script/suggestions, would be greatly appreciated, again. (LOL) Thanks All 73' Jim Frederick KF6QBW IRLP Node #3911 AllStar Node #'s 28839-R, 28842, 28843

Narrow FM setup
by Alan Adamson 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Ok, so is it possible to make a narrow FM setup work and sound reasonable? With this darn narrow banding stuff. I have a new NXDN UHF module that I can't get into Wide FM mode (like all my other ones). So I want to set it up with an RTCM as my replacement mobile repeater (gave it to my brother - yeah I know :).). So, can I get some recommendations for setup. I obviously can't generate 3khz, nor do I want it that hot on RX either. I do have a compander that I can enable if that might help. Just curious of those who decided to try this what they did and how they set it up. this is a full duplex Icom UR-FR6000 module. next to the moto R1225 about the smallest full duplex repeater that I know of :). and cheap too by repeater standards (for a new commercial repeater that is). Any *constructive* advice appreciated? Thanks, Alan

Re: [App_rpt-users] Echolink Connectivity Issue
by Pawlowski, Adam 21 Mar '13

I sent this a while back but it was bounced for the wrong mail address. I don't see it ever made it to the list. This was re: someone being advised that their app_rpt node is not permitted on the Echolink network. > Echolink is a nice service > that allows hams around the world to keep up pc to pc. And nobody asks > for any money, nice. But this is very, very out of the norm for them. > I looked this up recently when I started to talk about IRLP and how they don't want other traffic on their network. Then I looked at their Access Policy: 4. Stations operating in Sysop mode may interconnect EchoLink only with equipment operating on Amateur frequencies. EchoLink does not permit use of the system with other services such as GMRS, FRS, or MARS. For security reasons, it is also not permitted to interconnect EchoLink with other VoIP systems that support direct access from a computer. 10. The "addressing servers" are designed to be accessed by EchoLink software only. For the sake of system security and stability, any other access requires the permission of the server administrator. As a matter of security, in no event should the IP addresses (or Internet hostnames) of logged-in stations be displayed to anyone who is not a validated, logged-in user. 11. Although every effort will be made to apply these policies universally and fairly, the EchoLink Support staff reserves the right to withdraw a station's access privileges at any time, without notice. EchoLink is a privately owned and operated system that has no connection with, and is not governed by, any radio licensing authority. So, I interpret that as that you are not supposed to connect to with asterisk at all anyways, if you read that verbosely, via app_rpt or otherwise. I don't have the history to know if they've made any statement about what app_rpt is doing, but it seems like it's not permitted via their policy only they are less vocal about it than the IRLP folks.

Balanced Audio Levels
by Bob - AF6D 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Site 1 is installed and has been working extremely well. Site 2 will be installed next week. Both are Motorola MSF 5000's. I will be ordering the RTCM this week. Our goal is a simulcast, voted received system. Are there any particular steps necessary to achieve balanced audio levels beyond the norm? Bob - AF6D

BCD Channel Steering
by Ed Wilhelm 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

I plan to place a couple remote base radios in operation, and it would be really handy to be able to BCD channel steer them. Has this already been done using the GPIO on the URI or via the parallel port? URI would be cool since the plan is to have two radios on one server. I have been searching and saw it briefly mentioned on the list a couple years ago but no more. Guess it could be done with some creative macros. Would hate to reinvent the wheel if someone has already done so. Thanks, Ed W8VT Node 27849 Beckley, WV

RTCM Parameter question
by Bill Hurlock 19 Mar '13

I can't seem to find any reference to what item 17 does in the RTCM setup menu. It says DSP/BEW and appears to have 2 choices 0 or 1.

ctcss decode settings
by Bill Hurlock 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

I'm using a RTCM for my radio interconnect. I have the encode CTCSS encode working fine. How do I setup the CTCSS decode on the RTCM so I can use Tone SQ? I have audio coming from the discriminator direct.
