Re: [App_rpt-users] Using DSP on Rasberry Pi?
by John Griffith 28 Nov '17

28 Nov '17

I responded to Dave, but not the board, here it is again. The receive radio is a TYT TH-9000. The transmit radio is a Yaesu ft-7800. I found the 9000 has a more sensitive receiver, and the Yaesu has a better transmitter, it doesn't "crackle" During long transmissions like the TYT did. I'm using a standard URI. -----Original Message----- From: David McGough [mailto:kb4fxc@inttek.net] Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2017 9:51 AM To: John Griffith <jcarl.griffith(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Using DSP on Rasberry Pi? Hi John, What kind of radios(s) or repeater are you using? As the software developer of the hamvoip release, I'm interested to hear experiences, good or bad. Thanks, 73, David KB4FXC On Tue, 28 Nov 2017, John Griffith wrote: > About 4 months ago, I loaded Crompton on my Pi and transferred all the config files over from my ACID box. My current repeater uses ACID on an old fanless PC, and it happens to also have DSP configured for receive. The Pi 3 actually worked well, my Pi 3 handling the extra load from using DSP quite well. What broke however, was everything else. I had copied quite a bit over to get it to work, not just conf files. It's been a while, I don't remember exactly what all I copied over, but it was entire directories. Then, it was no longer able to run USB tune or even the new features that replaced it because the conf files are not compatible with the new system. I went back to my old ACID installation on my PC after hopelessly breaking my Crompton attempt. Fast forward to now. I have my repeater running off a solar panel, but the computer is too big a draw to keep the system running over night. I want to return to a Pi installation. I've tried configuring COS from the radio, but it has a nasty habit of not going out of COS once a received signal terminates. I REALLY want to use DSP as I've spent countless hours trying to make COS work properly and not achieving good success. Is there a way of making DSP work on a Pi without breaking stuff? Or is there a proper way of bringing my ACID setup over to my Pi successfully? Not even looked at DIAL, is it compatible with DSP, if it is, can it be brought over to Pi?

Problem getting RTCM to process received audio
by Doug Kingston 26 Nov '17

26 Nov '17

I am trying to prototype a RTCM based voting system with 2 RTCMs. I am using two JSLM2 Data Radios as transceivers. Using HP8920B service monitor to drive the radios. Good news: I can get both RTCMs and both radios to transmit. Test tones sound fine. Deviation good. Bad news: I can't get the RTCMs to register the incoming audio signal. There is no CTCSS in these radios, so that line is not connected. I have no COS signal connected either. Just audio in/out and PTT to the radio. I have confirmed the radios are receiving and are sending audio to the RTCMs using an oscilloscope. If anything the audio is way high in level. I measured 1v peak-to-peak when I think the RTCM is expecting 200mV. Tried the 20db pad with no effect. My suspicion is that the RTCM is a high-impedance input so the voltage is floating up in the absence of appropriate load (say from a 600 or 2k ohm). Second, I never get the green receive light on so I suspect there is actually some squelching or some such going on that is gating the audio signal off. Third, I have not been able to the the Squelch calibration or Diode calibration to behave. Does this require the diagnostic cable described in the interface to be used? The procedure is not documented well. I would love to see a know working config and wiring setup to confirm what I have done. -Doug- Current settings: Select the following values to View/Modify: S/W Version: 1.51 08/08/2017 System Uptime: 2095.0 Secs IP Address: 192.168.0.75 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Primary DNS: 192.168.0.1 Secondary DNS: 192.168.0.1 DHCP: 1 VOTER Server IP: 104.197.124.184 VOTER Server UDP Port: 667 OUR UDP Port: 667 GPS Lock: 1 Connected: 0 COR: 0 EXT CTCSS IN: 1 PTT: 0 RSSI: 0 Current Samples / Sec.: 8000 Current Peak Audio Level: 112 Squelch Noise Gain Value: 0, Diode Cal.

Initial DAIL startup failure

Hi Bob, The PS command shows the process running. I can successfully stop and restart it. The ‘COMM OK’ LED on the RA-35 is dark. The ‘HB’ LED is on solid versus flashing, which I expect. Thanks! Mark What are the indicators asterisk is running, but not talking to the RA-35.

Maybe I’m using the wrong documentation. The FAQ says to do the initial login with “repeater” and “allstarlink”. This didn’t work for me. I poked around and found that earlier versions used “root” and “debian”. That worked, but didn’t run the firsttime script. I managed to get firsttime script to run manually. The Allstar service appears to be running but won’t talk to the RA-35. I did confirm that the hardware is functioning by successfully installing “that other” allstar build.

SSTV software with PD120 Mode
by sp2ong＠wp.pl 19 Nov '17

19 Nov '17

Hi, I am looking for the version "pisstv", "pySSTV" or any other software that has SSVTV mode PD120 I used pisstv in the scripts to create a sound file that is converted from a dropped image from the camera to send a radio channel when the user wants it using the DTMF command. At the moment I have a pisstv with Robot 36 mode which allows converting 320x240 image and wav file time is 36 seconds. But I'm looking for software that supports SSTV PD120 mode. The PD120 allows you to convert an image of 640x480 with a length of 210 seconds. 73
