Nodes 2255 and 2392 are down

My BeagleBoard seems to have suddenly decided not to work anymore, so my nodes are temporarily down. I don't know when I will be able to replace my BeagleBoard-xM 8-Dale -- PickleJar Research - Home of the PICO NODE Dale Weber How many pickled pickles could a pickled penguin pick?

Beagleboard and USB URI dongle
by K&R Yoksh 16 Feb '11

I played around with this a little bit today... Seems like you have to use: rxchannel = Simpleusb/usb rather than: rxchannel = SimpleUSB/usb. I could be wrong, but it also seems that the parallel port support isn't included in simpleusb? I did observe a substantial decrease in processor usage. Too bad it's not as simple as DSP=0 or DSP=1 to enable/disable the DSP techniques in chan_usb... hi hi 73, Kyle K0KN --- Original Message ---I think all you have to do is this..... rpt.conf: (snip) [2532] ; Change this to your assigned node number rxchannel = SimpleUSB/usb ; Rx audio/signalling channel simpleusb.conf: (entire file) ; ; SimpleUSB configuration ;

Beagleboard and USB URI dongle

I'm curious about chan_simpleusb. Can it be used on a slower PC to improve performance? I'm running 2 CM108 fobs here on a P3/866 MHz with 512MB ram. This was my old EchoIRLP node PC, and it seems to work ok for Allstar, but I realize that it's below the recommended CPU speed for a USB fob node. My node radios have PL encode/decode in hardware, etc, so would I lose any functionality by switching to chan_simpleusb? Thanks.73 Kyle K0KN --- Original Message ---Yes, it works quite beautifuly with the URI, in fact it will support 2 of them *BUT* only with chan_simpleusb. The CPU does not have the horsepower to do the DSP routines used in chan_usbradio. Why dont you wait for the LOX board to become available in production? It wont be long. JIM WB6NIL

How would I create a function to play an audio file? I tried the following in hopes that it would work in the same way as the id. [functions] 83=/some/random/wave/file.wav -- ______________________ Kris Kirkland ~ K5KRK ______________________

Beagleboard and USB URI dongle

Hi there. Apologies if this question is in the list archives* somewhere. Does anyone have any experience with running app_rpt on the Beagleboard? In particular, has anyone managed to get it to work with the DMK Engineering URI USB dongle? I saw from the app_rpt FAQ that a faster machine ("CPU speed no less than 1.2 GHz") is recommended for use with the URI USB The Beagleboard-XM runs at 1.0 GHz. I'd be very interested in any field experience, or rationale as to why it is or isn't likely to work. Thanks! Phil, N6TCT * "The list archives" -- are there archives to the app_rpt-users mailing list? I didn't see any with a quick google... thanks.

I have successfully setup an allstar node running a Debian kernel. I have also written a script to make the process easier if anyone else is interested. This is compiled and working an an ALIX 3d embedded board (500Mhz/512Mb RAM).

Re: [App_rpt-users] worthwhile asterisk/app_rpt files to back-up?
by VE3GIH Gordon Hewit 14 Feb '11

14 Feb '11

Thank you to all who responded to this thread yesterday. I'm already backing up my files to my home PC, but if I'm unavailable (vacation, illness, SK), then someone else in the club should be able to take over. That's why savenode.sh seems like such as useful tool, if I could just get it to work :-) The command I'm using is: [root@AST_27465_BAL ~]# savenode.sh Saving Asterisk node configuration to register.allstarlink.org Error in transfer The /etc/asterisk/savenode.conf file is now: # config file for /usr/local/bin/savenode NODE=27465 ;Allstar Node number of the first repeater on this server PASSWORD=xxxxxxxx ;Same password as Alstar account VE3GIH ENABLE=1 When I examine the /usr/local/bin directory, the 'ls' command doesn't show any savenode file. It only shows 'zsync' and 'zsyncmake'. I have recently logged into the Allstar server, and confirmed my account, password and the fact that I'm registered as a sysop for this node.. Does anyone else have savenode.sh working? Suggestions or ideas welcomed.

Remote access to node fails
by GARY BONEBRAKE 14 Feb '11

14 Feb '11

New node setup using Allstarlink portal download. Behind NAT on private network. All necessary ports (udp/tcp) forwarded to server IP (4569, 5004-5082, 10000-20000) DNS redirect available (w5bi.no-ip.org) 1st problem - AllstarLink Web Transceiver on separate PC on LAN will not connect to my node (works to other nodes) 2nd problem - iaxRpt works on LAN but not from outside. Am I trying something impossible? Pointing to my public IP or w5bi.no-ip.org does not work. 3rd problem - WinSCP works fine on LAN but not from outside. Same question as iaxRpt - possible? I probably left out some critical detail(s), but help point me in the right direction. Gary Gary Bonebrake W5BI Emergency Coordinator Sandoval County ARES <mailto:w5bi@arrl.net> w5bi(a)nmscares.org

Hello, My apologies if this has been covered.. I searched the archives this morning before posting.. I'm just getting my Echolink node connected, and curious if it's possible to report my node to Echolink's Link Status screen? http://www.echolink.org/links.jsp Thanks.. 73, Kyle K0KN
