For the past six years a VoIP conference has been held the week end before NAB in Las Vegas. See http://www.narri.org/Annual_IRLP_Conference.html The key-note speaker has been Dave VE7LTD, the System designer for IRLP. For family reasons he is no longer available for the conference or even Dayton. It should be noted that Steven Rodgers provide a very good session on the All-Star System. Is there interest in members of this group attending and presenting at such a meeting?

Tomi,
Here are some things to try--
thanks for quick answer. i tested some more....

Hi
i have asterisk (EVB) and appr_rpt installed with usb sound/radio interface. one linksys voip phone as client (sip)
when i dial from sip client to asterisk/rpt in phone mode - there is no rx audio to sip client - *6 activates PTT but i can'n deactivate it (exept hanging up the
phone)
- tx audio is ok
This is the normal way it works as you are typically use a repeater (full duplex) for phone traffic.
my configuration is simplex (duplex=0)
-- however--
In the latest app_rpt.c (Version 0.91) there is an experimental simplex autopatch which is voice-activated (VOX) from the both the autopatch and the phone control features.
To set it up, set duplex = 0 in rpt.conf for the node, and then place these values in the node stanza:
;The following parameters are for vox operation(s) voxtimeout=5000 ; time to let vox talk in ms voxrecover=500 ; time to take from vox one
timed out in ms
simplexpatchdelay=25 ; # of 20 ms frames to delay audio simplexphonedelay=25 ; # of 20 ms frames to delay audio
For phone mode, append a v on the end of the rpt call in extensions.conf like this:
exten=1999,n,Rpt,1999|Pv
This activates the VOX when in phone mode.
Vox works fine.(with no receive audio) (very useful feature to my setup) in P mode(no vox), when dialin *6 (6=cop,6) it does not activate PTT until timeout or hangup. When i enable debug in rpt, and dial first *6 from sip rpt detects *6 from sip and prints ... @@@ action cop,6 ... <<radio tx on >> and ptt activates and so on... (i think "radio tx on" is from chan_usbradio) when i dial second *6 from sip (to deactivate) it prints same @@@ action cop,6 but does not print << radio tx off >> when i dial randomly *,6,# numbers from sip in random order many times i occasionally get << radio tx off>> << radio tx on>> always in pairs so that PTT remains on. in S mode i can't activate PTT at all. dialing * from sip i get << radio tx on>> << radio tx off>> always in pairs so that PTT remains off
some debug - app_rpt detects and hears dtmf commands from remote radio - test signal (milliwatt) from sip works fine
Are you sure this isn't chan_usb radio reporting the DTMF tones?
you are right it is chan_usb radio that reports DTMF tones
Are you using the same CTCSS tone used during setup?
i'm not using CTCSS at all
Please note that a bug has been reported on losing receive audio on some systems with the USB FOB after running a system for a while, but in your case it seems like the audio was never there to start with. This is not an issue on the pciradio radio interface. Do you initially have receive audio when you first start Asterisk? This I'd like to know.
no receive audio at all. i started asterisk always fully when tested (not reload) and i have never heard receive audio
- app_rpt test signal works. ( activates PTT, plays signal (in boths sip and radio), and deactivates ptt) - hidthread detects squels (vol dn) (when manualy pressing the vol dn, nowired squels to radio) - i have tested this with modified usb-adabter and original with headphones (both same result) - i tryed configure rpt as dupled and simplex (usbradio.conf) with no change
If you are running chan_usbradio with a half-duplex radio. Set it to 0, otherwise set it to 1. If you set up half-duplex in usbradio.conf, be sure to use duplex mode 0 or 1 in rpt.conf as well. Both conf files need to match each other in settings.
half-duplex radio. dublex=0 on both
- rpt detects dtmf's from sip - txtimeout works ( cut's tx after 30 sec)
any ideas to try?

Through the facilities of Aretta Communications <http://aretta.com> I am organizing and hosting Asterisk app_rpt conference calls. The purpose of these calls is to let users and developers informally share information, listen to questions and concerns, make announcements and generally get to know each other. I propose to hold our first conference call this Sunday, January 13th at 6PM EDT (2300Z). From there we can agree on dates and times for future calls. I'll be hanging out on the conference bridge from time to time for anyone who wants to test their connection. Our initial agenda will consist of introductions and a brief description of each participant's existing or planned app_rpt system(s). I'll share my observations on the state of the project and my plans for contributions. Here is the SIP user information to connect to the conference call host server as an extension: Host = steveh.aretta.net User = 123 Secret = roip54 Call into extension 124 and you will be connected to the conference bridge. I hope to talk to you then. Best Regards, Steven Henke, W9SH <http://www.xelatec.com/w9sh>
