What about a system that is similar to lets say Echolink in the ability to search and select what repeater you want to add to your quick list then use this to connect to the repeater through a web transceiver like setup kinda like an all in one type software.. If i understood what you were talking about this you would have to setup up repeater side individually for each user..
Once you get a bit more familiar with the software and read a bit more about it's capabilities, then perhaps you can answer your own questions... but in the meantime, check into 'scheduling', 'iax' and 'macros'. Once a macro is set in rpt.conf you can dial it with a (as few as) 3 digit code, the first two being the standard macro access command. ;-) If there's another allstar node you wish to connect to all the time (to link the nodes together) see 'startup macro'. Lots of information out there, but basically, it's this: Allstar is the radio/repeater control software with the ability to link. It's not 'end-user' stuff, and there are no 'phone apps' to access it from the 'end user' side of things. The "end user" in this type of setup, is the radio/repeater User (and you don't want -them- with access to your castle! That's what the moat and drawbridge are for, right? ;-) ) As the System Operator/Administrator, -you- have the keys to your castle and can do with it as you please. Allstar is fun, very technical, challenging (most times) in finding good documentation and all around does an awesome job in linking two radios/repeaters or combinations thereof together. 73 = Best Regards -Geoff/W5OMR
