Hi all, I installed Zoiper on my Android phone and configured my node. When I connect using Zoiper, I can hear fine on the phone, but the “mute” button won’t allow me to transmit from the phone. I than installed Android IAXRPT on the same phone and it transmits and receives fine using the same setting that I used in Zoiper. As a final test, I installed Zoiper on another Android phone and had the same issue, mute button won’t allow me to transmit. Any idea’s? Thanks, Steve_WB8GRS
The mute button is not a surrogate for PTT. If your IAX client is configured for PTT, the default to transmit is entering *99 and # to receive. If your client is configured for VOX, the mute button will keep the VOX from triggering, acting as an "allow/disallow" switch. As with any VOX circuit, you pause, things unkey. tnx Mike / W5JR Alpharetta GA

Thanks Mike, *99 / # worked!!! Is there a way to change *99 to something simpler, like * to transmit and # to switch back to receive? Better yet, * to transmit and * to toggle back to receive.

The default is *99 / #. Yes, you can specify something else in the rpt.conf file. However, it has to follow the rules for commands, meaning that it has to be unique and not conflict with other commands. If you don't plan to use the autopatch codes, you can "borrow" the *6xxx stuff and use *6 / #. Just be careful not to expect any other *6 sequences to be available. I'll have to look later for the right syntax or someone else can reply with. tnx Mike / W5JR Alpharetta GA

in extensions.conf: I use this - exten=1001,1,Answer exten=1001,n,Playback,rpt/node exten=1001,n,Rpt,1001|Pv 1001 being replaced with your node # A handy reference - unfortunately no page numbers - http://k5tra.net/TechFiles/acid-sysadmin.pdf Just search for the term(s)
Hi Mark, Thanks for the link to Tom’s webpage and your examples, I now think I have a better understanding. in the extensions.conf I used: exten=1001,n,Rpt,1001|P (change 1001 to my node number). When I changed it to: exten=1001,n,Rpt,1001|Pv the mute works as PTT because it now works in VOX mode. I did not know what the v after the last P was for until I read the ACID System Administrators Guide. PTT operation is a little crude, but it works. No need to enter *99 to transmit or # to switch to receive. I doing this for a ham friend the has an iphone so I need an app that works on iphone. I have an android phone and prefer Android IAXRPT that has a PTT toggle button, but there is no such application that has a PTT button that works on Allstar that I know of for the iphone. I believe the Echolink app for iphone has a PTT button, but we want to use Allstar.
