Cable Adapter Card for Kenwood TMG-707A to URI
by Marshall Oldham 09 Feb '13

09 Feb '13

Greetings, Several months ago there were a few people on the list that were interested in the Kenwood TMG-707A radio to DMK URO interface boards for agile remote base use. We have made a "limited quantity" run of (bare-boards) for use with the Kenwood TMG-707A radio to the DMK URI interface board. These boards are used as an interface between your all-star computer with a DB9 serial port and your Kenwood TMG-707A radio to remotely control your radio. The board plugs directly into the end of the URI with the 25 pin connector, and a serial port on your PC device. These boards use all standard thru-hole parts that takes very little specialized skills to construct. You can go to this website to see what the boards look like. http://ohnosec.org/drupal/node/162 I also have an updated bill of material parts list from digikey for the new boards. If you are interested in purchasing these boards please contact me off the list. (ke6pcv at gmail dot com) First come first serve as I only have small quantity! 73 Marshall - ke6pcv

Telemetry
by Chris Andrist 07 Feb '13

07 Feb '13

Does anybody know if there is a way to permanently turn off all non-local telemetry. For example: If I connect to another allstar node or another allstar node connects directly to me it should announce. Ir the same with echolink, but the telemetry from remote nodes is getting rather irritating. I know I can set telemdefault=0 and turn off all telemetry, but I want local telemetry.

Re: [App_rpt-users] SCOM 7330

I have all of this done. I can see 1vPP on the input to the uri. But when I do the radio tune rx voice I get a failed response from no audio. I have tried a different uri as well. Thanks.

Set as follows: in usbradio. conf the audio setting should be : rxdemod=speaker txprelim=no This assumes the audio on the 7330 port is de-emphasized and does not require pre emphasis to and from the node. Disconnect the URI from the 7330. 1) Send a full quieting signal to the repeater with a 1k tone @ 3k deviation. Set the TX audio level on the controller URI port to 1v p-p. 2) Connect an 1K audio tone @1vp-p to the RXA pin on the controller port and gound the COR in line. Adjust input level to get 3k deviation on the repeater TX. Now you have the controller levels fixed. You new need to adjust the URI to these settings. Connect the URI and node to the controller. 3) Send a full quieting signal with the 1k k tone /3k deviation to the repeater and on the URI CLI console do a RADIO TUNE RXVOICE to measure the input level. (Dont worry about the RX noise adjustment - not required as you are not doing any DSP with this setup) 4) Do a RADIO TUNE TXVOICE 500 and measure the repeater deviation. 5) Repeat step 5 with different level until 3k deviation is reached on the repeater TX deviation. 6 Do a RADIO TUNE SAVE the set the audio levels on the node. 7) you are done.

I just installed the XIPIR ISO on a new computer , AllStar WebTranceiver will not connect , although it is registered there. I tried overwritting the extensions_rpt_custom.conf<http://192.168.232.180/evb/page_mod/phpconfig/phpconfig.php?file=extensions…> and iax_rpt_custom.conf<http://192.168.232.180/evb/page_mod/phpconfig/phpconfig.php?file=iax_rpt_cu…> and keys files with the Allstar manual configurations. I tried this but it rang once and still did not connect. What am missing.??Examples? Thanks, Rick W4kdm

SCOM 7330
by Steve Schulze 03 Feb '13

03 Feb '13

Anyone have a working node using an SCOM 7330 in line? I currently am trying to get these two to work. It's about 80% right now. Audio from the node box is making it to the repeater and keying the transmitter, no problem there. The problem I'm having is the audio from the repeater not getting into the node box. I see the audio on a scope at pin 9 (mic_in) on the URI. I also have a transition from high to low on pins 7 and 8 (COR Det and CTCSS Det) when the 7330 tells it to transmit. On the 7330, I'm using port 1 for the repeater. Port 3 is connect to the URI. Paths on 7330 as follows: RX-1 to TX-1 RX-1 to TX-3 RX-3 to TX-1 In rpt.conf I have duplex=0 and linktolink=on In USB radio I have carrierfrom=usb and ctcssfrom=usb Looking for thoughts / suggestions. Thanks in advance! -- Amateur Radio - The Original Social Media Steve Schulze - Radio Amateur, General Class - N9UDO Administrator, Baraboo, Wisconsin D-Star System - WB9FDZ Administrator, Baraboo, Wisconsin AllStarLink Systems - 27616, 27727 Treasurer, Badgerland Amateur Television Society - KB9SFS http://yellowthunder.org/dstar.html

what does priority mean
by Pierre Martel 02 Feb '13

02 Feb '13

when I connect to my node with iaxrpt I see this in the logs -- Accepting AUTHENTICATED call from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: > requested format = ulaw, > requested prefs = (), > actual format = ulaw, > host prefs = (ulaw|gsm), > priority = mine what does priority = mine mean? Does it have to do with what audio have prioroty on the other in a simplex link?

I would like to compile a list of all bugs/problems with CURRENT code, *NOT* feature suggestions, enhancements, etc. To prevent a list-frenzy, please send them *PRIVATELY* (not on this list) to: currentbugs(a)allstarlink.org Thanks Jim WB6NIL

for those who might be brave
by Jim Duuuude 01 Feb '13

01 Feb '13

I have made some source updates to attempt to support installations on newer 2.6.X kernels (such as the one for Centos 6.X). Could someone using chan_usbradio possibly load Centos 6.3 (32 bit) on a system, with the appropriate packages (see the phase1.sh and phase2.sh scripts in the acid/trunk directory on the SVN), and see if the darned thing works? I havent even tried it on a 64 bit install. Well, it compiles, darn it!!! :-) Jim WB6NIL

Pi status?
by James Nessen 01 Feb '13

01 Feb '13

So, I have to admit that I have been loosely following this group over the past few months and sadly I am not up to speed! What's the status of the Pi with asterisk/app_rpt? Does it work or no? I have a friend who is interested in getting a node running on the Pi. Thanks! Jim, K6JWN
