I am using a smartphone to access my node so that I can listen to the radio channel, and when required, transmit on the channel. All is well, but I want to implement a timeout so that if I put the node into transmit mode from my smartphone and do not return it to receive, the transmitter will turn off, after say, 30 seconds. I am using the default IAX configuration for the smartphone. The tx_timeout parameter makes the transmitter turn off at the required time as expected. But when a radio user subsequently transmits on the channel and then goes back to receive, the node keys the transmitter again and continues to send audio from the smartphone on the channel. It is as if the smartphone PTT is still "closed" and so the timeout timer resets itself and waits another 30 seconds before switching off again. So I guess I need a way to disconnect the smartphone after x seconds of PTT from it ? Google is failing me on this one and I'd be grateful for any help. Thanks Bernie GM4WZG

Dear Danny,
This is very clever. Thanks for including my podcast, QSO Today, in your Allstar jukebox of podcasts.
73,

Hi Eric,
It is only a pleasure. I have been listening to your podcast for so long and I thought it would be befitting to repay you and all the others that have podcasts in such a manner.
Would you believe me if I told you the same evening I advertised "Play Something" on this list we experienced heavy thunderstorms which forced me to shut down the whole system ... lol ...
But at least I got to test my skills at unplugging everything within a flash. I think I broke my own record ... less than 4 minutes to pull the plug and disconnect all feedlines ...
However, on a slightly different note ... please guys, if you register with a mistyped callsign contact me immediately in order for me to rectify it. Too many hams blamed the system, but when I checked the database and their original registration e-mail, they mistyped/misspelled their own callsigns and/or e-mail address.
Some of you asked me to give a little more detail, so here goes.
"Play Something" does exactly what it's name says, it "Plays Something". You don't know what you are going to get. But I guarantee you will not hear the same podcast played more than once in 3 months or more (except for ARRL news). The algorithm I have developed will prevent this from happening. Podcasts are not randomly selected, but rather in a fashion where you will be able to follow a certain podcast provider from his first podcast to his last podcast in a sequential order. Also, you will not hear the same podcaster twice in a row.
"Play Something" observes time-outs. It transmits for 150 seconds, then unkeys for 10 seconds. I think 10 seconds should be enough for anyone to squeeze through a DTMF code ... ;) ...
Oh yes ... one important thing ... YOU NEED TO CONNECT TO MY NODE to listen ... people send me mails telling me "Play Something" is not working but they never even connected ... ;) ...
"Play Something" is for EVERYONE and ANYONE for FREE (for as long as possible). I have no problem if you park your node permanently at my node whilst you are just listening ... that's just fine by me ...
I am open to suggestions ... and if you have a podcaster you would like to add you are more than welcome to make a suggestion
Thank you
