OK, so define a linking hub? Would you have any radios connected directly to it? 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio From: ve6sar@gmail.com Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 19:43:50 -0700 Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] BBB multiple simpleUSB nodes? To: doug@crompton.com CC: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Hi Doug, I'm building a linking hub and had hoped to to use app_rpt to do the linking between the various links as a cheaper alternative to a hardware controller.

It you have four repeaters wouldn't you want one BBB per repeater to control it? You need the same USB stuff to run on one PC as four BBB's - assuming you are connecting to four radios. Is this what you are doing? 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio From: ve6sar@gmail.com Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 18:24:57 -0700 Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] BBB multiple simpleUSB nodes? To: doug@crompton.com CC: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Thanks Doug, I might just go with a hardware controller then. We don't need the VoIP linking, I was looking for a less expensive alternative to a hardware controller. By the time I got 3 or 4 BBBs and the bits to build the usb interfaces I be at the cost of a hardware link controller so might as well go with one of those Thanks for the help.

Use multiple BBB's and put one node on each. Link them together locally. I know a number of people doing this with great success. Each BBB would be a server defined at allstarlink.org and each would be on a unique port - 4566,7,8,9. It is easy to do but if you need more help just ask. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 15:53:56 -0700 From: ve6sar@gmail.com To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: [App_rpt-users] BBB multiple simpleUSB nodes? Hi everyone, Has anyone tried having multiple simpleusb nodes running on one BBB? I'm interested in running up to 4 for a linking controller.
