Hi Marshall,

Thanks for the thought, but it happens with both a transmitter and with a headset.

Rob,

 

Based on your comments about the telemetry "not sounding choppy when listening to it over the phone."

 

It could be that RF from your transmitter is getting into your sound fob.  Do you have a transmitter hooked up to the USB sound fob?

 

As a test, disable your transmitter and use clip leads to connect a PC amplified computer speaker to your TX audio line and see if you still have choppy audio.

 

If you do  NOT have choppy audio with the amplified speaker, this surely points to some type of RF getting into your sound fob.

 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] USB fob choppy/stuttering audio

 

Good morning all,

 

I’m trying to set up an AllStar node using a USB fob based on the CM119 chip.  I’m having issues with choppy/stuttering audio, particularly on telemetry.  It’s bad enough that it renders the CW ID meaningless.

My original thought was lack of CPU power, but I have tried it on a Raspberry Pi 2, Pi 3, and several virtual machines on a quad-core PC with identical results.  Also, the choppiness is NOT as bad when using the full USB driver instead of SimpleUSB, which I believe conclusively rules out CPU power.

I’ve also tried a powered USB hub, thinking that the USB device was not receiving enough power, with no improvement.

I’ve used the Android mobile app to connect to the node, and the telemetry does not seem to be choppy when listening to it over the app.  While I need to do some more testing to say this conclusively, I do believe at this point that my issue is narrowed down to the USB fob itself and/or the specific audio stream being sent to the device.

I’m currently searching for a way to alter the sample rate that ASL is sending the audio to the device in.

Has anyone experienced this, and does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thanks and 73,

 

Rob, WX1N
