Ok I know there is a time out timer for the radio attached to the node. I had to adjust that up slightly but that isn’t my problem. My problem is I like to have the Alaska morning net on my node, but I noticed that after an hour the node is disconnected. I then must reconnect to keep listening. That makes me think there is some sort of node time out somewhere that is shutting off the Alaska node after an hour. If there is can someone tell me in what conf file it is in so I can adjust it.

David: Investigate this, it may help ... ; RECEIVER INACTIVITY TIMER for LINKED NODES ;lnkactenable = 0 ; Set to 1 to enable the link activity timer. Applicable to standard nodes only. ;lnkacttime = 3900 ; Link activity timer time in seconds. ;lnkactmacro = *5100 ; Macro to execute when link activity timer expires. ;lnkacttimerwarn=/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/KF5VH-AS1/ann60 ; Message to play when the link activity timer has 30 secs left located in rpt.conf ... when enabled it seems it works like ... after linking, when the local rx gets a signal, timer linkacttime is reset, if the local rx remains idle and the timer reaches 30 seconds then say lnkacttim, if the timer reaches 0 then execute lnkactmacro which should be a disconnect. Was probably designed for driving out of coverage but works to keep the link up as long as you keyup at least once an hour (just thump it). ...STeve - KF5VH On 3/2/2018 1:36 PM, David Waters wrote:

The subject of your query is misleading. Your talking about Link Timeout. remote_inact_timeout=1800 While I don't remember or know for sure, I believe if you don't have a value stated, it will default to something in the order of 5min (600) and you can look back through the source code if you need to know for sure. But I think if you put a line like that in your rpt.conf file, it will be just fine. Just understand the implications for the values you set it to. ...mike/kb8jnm ----- Original Message ----- From: "Users of Asterisk app_rpt" <app_rpt-users@lists.allstarlink.org> To:<app_rpt-users@lists.allstarlink.org> Cc: Sent:Fri, 2 Mar 2018 14:36:12 -0500 Subject:[App_rpt-users] Node time out Ok I know there is a time out timer for the radio attached to the node.
