Hi Guys: I am preparing a RPi3 to replace a dying PC with ACID at my repeater site. The Pi will control 2 full-duplex repeaters. I have prepared the config files at home and plugged in 2 (modified) USB fobs. Both fobs worked initially... i.e., I was able to connect a test repeater to each fob and hear telem' data out of the repeater / corresponding to the applicable node #. I am using usbradio for both fobs (config changed in modules.conf and rpt.conf) The issue I have is that the LED on one of the fobs is no longer flashing and hence, no audio out of that fob. The LED is however, on permanently. Here is the output of 'lsusb': Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0d8c:013c C-Media Electronics, Inc. CM108 Audio Controller Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter It is the 2nd fob that seems to be non-responsive. Any ideas folks? I am reluctant to swap fobs between USB ports as I know that usb enumeration can be a pig! Cheers, Ramesh, VA3UV

Looks like this one is not a CM108? Those "3D Sound" fobs seem to have all kinds of random chips in them. I've got two "identical" FOBs laying around from other projects and neither one is a CM108. I just ordered 4 that claim to be CM108s. We'll see when they arrive. /a

<-- Agreed... but interesting that it worked for a short while! R.
Hi Ramesh, you may be seeing the same issue I have with multiple URIs on the RPI. this seems to be a problem when using USB radio on the RPI in the latest dial distro. I reported it Steve N4IRS but don't know if its been fixed or not. Perhaps you can do 2 RPI one per node for now. Jon RQ On 4/18/2017 10:22 AM, Ramesh Dhami wrote:

<-- Hi Jon; interesting... because this fob did work fine with the Pi using the DIAL v1 distro (as far as I recall) and my ACID box prior to that. I am using the v1.1 DIAL distro' at present. Not too keen on using a 2nd Pi.... if push comes to shove, I may just use 1 Pi with 1 fob for the 220 machine (and let the 440 machine be a D-STAR box full-time, which 99.9% of the time it is ;). Steve - any update on this? Cheers! Ramesh.

Hi Keith: I will see if I have a USB hub to try with tonight.... that may introduce new problems! R. Sent from my iPhone

<-- Hi Keith, Jon and all: I picked-up a 4-port powered USB hub this evening... Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0d8c:013c C-Media Electronics, Inc. CM108 Audio Controller Bus 001 Device 004: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB No joy.... still have the same issue... however, the USB fob that was not working last night (when connected to the Pi directly) is now working.... and the one that was working last night is not! So it's one or the other... can't be having that at a remote site! Ramesh.
