You setup is difficult to envision, being the visual sort of guy that I am. I'd have to see a drawing to understand the picture. :-)

But maybe this will help. RTCMs, or more correctly stated, chan_voter is picky about site names and passwords. You have to be sure no site names or passwords are duplicated. Also, you must not have a password that the is the same as any site name including it's own site. Otherwise chan_voter gets very confused. Give you voter.conf a good going over and let us know how you make out.

Hi folks,

I have a unique problem I am hoping someone on the list can help me uncover where to look next. The situation is
this:

I have repeaters are 2 mountain tops. Mountain 1 and Mountain 2. On Mountain 1 are (2) repeaters, a VHF (repeater A) and
UHF (Repeater B). On Mountain 2 is a VHF (Repeater C) and UHF (Repeater D).

On mountain 1, there are also voted receivers for Repeaters C & D.

There are DIAL boxes on both mountains. Repeaters A&B using DIAL on Mountain 1 (non-voting config, just basic repeater), and Repeaters C,D and both voters using
DIAL box on Mountain 2 (microwave links between mountain 1 & 2).

Everything has it's own RTCM (so there are 6 RTCMs in this situation). Everything is private (no public allstar nodes)

Looking at allmon2 (running on each of the DIAL servers) I can see that there are NO links established and the RSSI bars
respond to each of the voted receivers appropriately.

I have checked each RTCM and DIAL box and verified that everything is logging in to where it is supposed to, and no where else.

The problem I have is that when you transmit on Repeater A, the audio is being transmitted on both Repeaters A & C.
If you transmit on repeater C, the audio is only retransmitted on Repeater C (as it should be).

Looking at allmon, even during a transmission, there are NO links established.

Verbose output on asterisk (asterisk -rvvvvvvvvv) shows no links established on either DIAL box.

I can't figure out why DIAL on mountain 1 is sending the audio over to Mountain 2 DIAL (and only on the VHF set of repeaters even though the UHF set has an identical config).
Any thoughts on where I might go looking would be much appreciated... I have been tearing my hair out on this one for a while!

Happy to share any requested config.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts/comments/insights/etc!
