Bob, 

You need a server with the RTCM otherwise it's just a dumb repeater controller with no functions other than hang time and cwid.  You'll also need some expensive GPSDO for the simulcast function.  

Without knowing the particulars of the phone patch I can't comment much.  Though it will be tricky to get the phone patch to work at all without some creative programming in-order to pass the dtmf tones to the patch.  The "easiest" way to go is pay the 5 bucks for Jim's atuopatch service.

I am about to order my first Radio Thin Client and get a node up to start. Eventually we’ll add our own server and share resources that I have. I had asked a question that I must have sent the wrong place.

 

Our plan is two MSF 5000’s linked, GPS locked and voted simulcast. We’ll add remote receivers later. The question is regarding a Motorola phone patch. From the reading that I’ve done phone patch is available with Asterisks somehow but I have one for the MSF. Can it be used or should I expect audio delays? Can it be used across both nodes or am I better off staying with Asterisks?

 

I am going to the second mountain top today to prep for the second MSF and would like to do this right. I am the rookie but I have a very well experienced Elmer that hasn’t used Allstar yet.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Humbly, Bob
