Ppp16 is for channel steering radio with that ability such as a Motorola GM300.  When you program a gm300 you need to set it up for channel steering.  Grounding different inputs to the radio select different channels.

 

I was planning on working with Steve W9SH over Christmas on this, but I was pretty sick during that time and never got to it.  Just curious if anyone has used this and could give me some pointers as Steve is a pretty busy guy. 

 

What I ended up doing was compiling a few lines of code that I can turn certain output on/off on the lpt port.  This isn’t built into asterisk so I was just going to control it one way I knew how without bugging the developers…

 

Has anyone ever used ppp16?

but as im planning my freq agile remote. i saw these interesting lines, that we could not quite ident.

696

static char *remote_rig_kenwood="kenwood";

697

static char *remote_rig_tm271="tm271";

698

static char *remote_rig_tmd700="tmd700";

699

static char *remote_rig_ic706="ic706";

700

static char *remote_rig_xcat="xcat";

701

static char *remote_rig_rtx150="rtx150";

702

static char *remote_rig_rtx450="rtx450";

703

static char *remote_rig_ppp16="ppp16"; // parallel port programmable 16 channels

 

"kenwood". which models? commecial models  or just ham mobiles?

 

i know what the yeasu models are and an xcat, but what is a ppp16? is that a commecial model specific 16 channel mobile? does it write to the eeprom of that radio? or does it just do memory channel up and down?

 

"rtx150" "rtx450" - this must be ritron portable radios? does it just bump channel up and down? i was trying to find a list of the radios folks used in there freq agile remote? thanks. james kd5oxm
