I have been having a heck of a time trying to find a fob with a cm108 chip in it. I have 5 fobs here all from different suppliers and none of them have the right chip even though they were listed as a cm108.
I had seen a alsaradio channel driver and tried that but it errors our asterisk with a 127 error. Is there anything out there so that we can use serial/soundcard interfacing instead of a fob or the expensive quad card?

I just received 4 leaded CM108 fobs from China. 10 days, and they are the right thing. Google "bestofferbuy cm108" without the quotations and click the first result. $6.90 - free shipping. These may be a better choice over the dealextreme units as they have routinely been the epoxied blob - not a leaded cm108 which makes PTT signaling more difficult. Also, I have used both the quad card and the fob. Don't believe the squabble over the superiority of the quad card. The CM108 based interfaces I have built and used have excellent audio quality and squelch action. I use the xelatec distro. Tastes great - less filling. Kevin - W3KKC
