I had to tweak my levels several times to
get the audio into and out of the XPR4350 correct. I’m using a modified
usb fob and it seems to be ok but it took a while.

We just
did the same thing. Multisite analog to multi side DMR bridge w/mobile radio
and all star. Worked very nice. Audio going from analog to digital in some
cases actually sounded better on digital thanks to the noise reduction in the
trbo. Still have large variation in the digital audio levels occasionally
overloading the URI input but I suspect could be helped with a inline
compressor/limiter. Sent

The sky seems to be the limit with Allstar. As of about a
day ago I’ve tied MotoTRBO into a Limey Linux node and cross connected
it to my two analog repeaters. I don’t think theres anything it
can’t do except make you dinner. 73 de K0JSC From:
app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org [mailto:app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org] On Behalf Of Alan Adamson I
have searched high and low and yet haven't found much good information for
what I'm about to ask. I hope this mail list might help with that. I'm
about to dive into AllStar and all its associated parts. BUT, I'd like to know
if what I'm thinking makes sense, and that there
isn't a more preferred way of doing it? I
have a wide area coverage (for Now
don't get all excited, I'm not about to think that I can do that *digitally*. All audio will be analog
either decoded or about to be encoded. Secondly,
I'd like to *remote* all the services to my house and host them from there,
instead of at the repeater site. It does have internet, but it's
remote, not readily accessible, etc. So,
is the following feasible, desired, are the better ways to do what I'm
thinking? a)
take the analog audio input/output at the repeater and put it into either a
URI with a fanless PC install of AllStar, or a PicoNode with Pickle and LOX. b)
put the other services (ala, IRLP, Echo, etc) at my house with a dedicated PC
setup with URI's and another install of AllStar (ok, Asterisk and it's
associated radio parts) c)
connect all that together with IP and the appropriate setups to allow links
to be created, torn down. NOTE:
I didn't say anything about any form of *external controller*, other than the
Unix boxes and their AllStar installs. I’m hoping I won't need
one and will just use the NXDN repeater and its internal controller for what is needed at the
repeater. If
I did the above, what issues will occur when you link the repeater to oh say
IRLP via an IP connection between two AllStar nodes? Will there be any
issues with DTMF, tail crashes, courtesy tones, etc. Either not being
there or being there when they shouldn't be? Lastly
is it possible to add a simplex radio to the home node such that it will
connect me to the repeater, or other services (again over and IP link)? Sheesh,
I get confused just trying to explain this…. I've looked all over to
try and find some similar examples of this, I'm sure they exist, but it
appears that either I'm not entering the right Google search phrases or they
aren't too well documented. Any
help, advice, steering, etc welcome… Thanks, Alan |
