You can certainly do this, but the concept behind a hub node is that none of the computer's resources are being tied up handling the intensive work of addressing connected hardware, be it URI, Beagle Board, RTCM, or a sound FOB. A hub node allows 100% of the resources to be used to handle the connected nodes. If you begin experiencing brief "holes" in the node audio, you have stretched the machine too thin on resources. I'm sure there are other issues that can arise as well.

Dear all,
I would like to host a hub node on one of my existing allstar nodes - is this possible?
I already have 2 "real" nodes using USB fobs on the computer but wanted to add a "Pseudo" setup to use as a hub for a different net.
If this is possible, would anyone be kind enough to guide me how to modify my node config files please?
Many thanks,
