Here's a feature I haven't heard anything about yet.. Do you have multiple RF nodes connected to Asterisk, and ever wanted to 'flip' them? For example, you have a VHF and UHF node, and occasionally would like to put the VHF traffic on UHF and vice-versa? I've actually wanted to have this capability before, and it occurred to me tonight how to easily achieve this. Here are the DTMF commands for rpt.conf: 950=cmd,/home/kyle/astflip 0 ; unflip nodes - normal 951=cmd,/home/kyle/astflip 1 ; flipVHF and UHF nodes What needs to happen to completely 'flip' two nodes is incredibly simple, the more I thought about it. Here's a normal node stanza: [2211] rxchannel=SimpleUSB/usb2211 and here's a 'flipped' node stanza: [2211] rxchannel=SimpleUSB/usb2212 All I had to do was to automate the process! There are two copies of rpt.conf. One is the normal setup, and the other has the rxchannels flipped as above. Here is my script: #!/bin/bash # # Script to flip Allstar Nodes, by K0KN 7/2012 # # Usage = astflip [1] [0] 0=normal 1=flipped # ASTERISK=/etc/asterisk NORMAL=/etc/asterisk/rpt.normal FLIPPED=/etc/asterisk/rpt.flipped if [ "$1" == "" ] ; then echo "Missing Argument(s)" ; exit fi # Flip configs if [ $1 == 1 ] ; then cp "$FLIPPED" "$ASTERISK/rpt.conf" fi if [ $1 == 0 ] ; then cp "$NORMAL" "$ASTERISK/rpt.conf" fi # Restart Asterisk asterisk -rx "restart now" # done exit 0 fi
