I've used anything from the Kenwood G707 to commercial rigs. I currently use Motorolas and steer the channels with GPIO. I never had an issue with allmon when using the 707 we just needed tougher hardware. On Sat, Dec 12, 2015 at 3:11 PM, Steve Zingman <szingman@msgstor.com> wrote:
Jeff, To try to narrow the search, what equipment do you use on your remote bases?

I'm curious as to why allmon would be an issue? I'm running 2 allmon servers which monitor up to 12 nodes with 5 remote bases and have not had issues. What is the problem that allmon causes?

allmon and allmon2 will cause an issue. if you do not use them you will not have the problem steve. it can be made to cause a crash every time when used.
this is why i have taken the remote base node off the allmon2 page's on dial. and will have to do the same for the acid build also.
i am working with dial to make the migration to new hardware sooner or later.

I don't have any stability issues with the 706 and the basic rpt remote base code. I don't need hamlib. Admittedly, I don't use Aallmon in it. I'll have to try it.
YMMV

Hi Ken,
Interesting that having allmon2 probe the RB stats causes a Asterisk crash...Back in yesteryear I tried to run a 706mkiig RB using the built-in code and never had good results--YES, it did work. But, Asterisk wasn't stable very long, frequently crashing several times a day, depending on use. Various serial communications issues with the radio would -sporadically- "knock it for a loop" too. I concluded that their was probably memory getting clobbered somewhere.
If I disabled the RB command support, the Asterisk stability skyrocketed--uptimes now measured in weeks, months or longer. As an example, here are the stats from one of my RB systems now:
TX time today....................................: 01:12:27.95 TX time since system initialization..............: 87:37:42.861 Uptime...........................................: 1336:34:22
It has been up 55 days without any issues....And, as you can see, it gets used--But, I now use hamlib for all RB commands.

the crash is caused when accessing the the remote base node
using the asterisk manager interface via allmon2 by the way.

Ken, I now better understand. I'll work on something that will solve the restart from crash. I will also look into what is causing the crash since I also have a 706 as a remote base.
Thanks, Steve
