Great idea. I hope you figure it out.

My goal is to create a simple 'answering machine' for my allstar node.

I would like for a user to be able to connect to my node and enter a DTMF command that would then cause the node to record the very next transmission and store it to a folder on a mounted volume on the PI.

I have looked into using the built-in recording feature via 'archivedir' . Howver I am not sure how to control it so that it will start and stop recording.

So my question is this. Is there a simple way to tell the node to record the next transmission, save it, and then stop recording? 

I am hoping this could be done via a script which could be called by app rpt via a dtmf command.

Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
