Jim, Many, many THANKS for all the time and effort you have put into this project! I have been involved with repeater and linking systems since the '70s and currently work with the very latest Motorola Astro P25 trunking systems and I can tell you that the more I dig into app_rpt and Allstar, the more fun stuff I find! Today, I actually got a node configured to work with the Doug Hall RBI-1 and dual Kenwoods as a remote base! Very very cool! That makes 7 or so nodes I have built with various flavors of releases and SVN's. (all up to date now). The more I work with it, the more I learn, which after 34 years in the business, is bringing new life to Amateur radio as well as ROIP. Duuuude!, you ROCK! (and I completely agree with your decision to dump IRLP integration). In support of Jim and this project, I made a donation to the cause and hope others will do the same. Neil WA5JXY
