I think what he is asking is whether the weather the Rx and Tx streams of the RTCM can be used on different nodes. In other words, at a specific site with only a single RTCM, can the transmitter be part of node A while the receiver is part of node B.

Concisely; Two repeaters, a 6m repeater and a 2m repeater. Two repeater sites; Site "A" has 6m TX and 2m RX. Site "B" has 6m RX and 2m TX. *One* RTCM at each site. chan_voter will have to have it explained in excruciating detail. Call me cheap - two RTCM is cheaper than four RTCM, and duplexing 6/2 is a lot less complex than duplexing 6/6 and 2/2. ;) Steve

Looking at his message again that may not actually be what he is looking for, though.

Steve, as long as there is only one Asterisk node involved, meaning a single repeater "system" although using multiple bands, a single RTCM at a site will work. If configured this way all the 6m and 2m receivers would link back and be voted into a single stream which would then be sent out to all the 6m and 2m transmitters at the different sites. When used like this as far as app_rpt is concerned it behaves no differently than having a voted/simulcast system on a single band.

Of course each RTCM can transmit and receive. The receive only sites don't have the transmit parameter in voter.conf. But you seem to be asking a different question. If so, could you restate it? -- Tim :wq

Gurus!

Can I operate arbitrary recievers and transmitters with the voter boards, and separate them in config at chan_voter?

Background: Our terrain does not lend itself to a few high-sited duplexed repeaters (or rather we are not inclined to pay for it), so we are taking the non-duplexed distributed approach of locating recievers and transmitters at various sites on a non-contending basis and GPS locking them all together. It seems to us that if we have a hole in some coverage, that it would easy (read - cheap) to throw another GM300 at the problem..

That is, site A has either a 6M transmitter and other 2M receiver, or otherwise non-contending combinations, and the corresponding pair for each repeater receiver or transmitter is actually located on a nearby site linked with 802.11an.

SO! It looks at first glance that I must use a VOTER board for each rx AND each tx, but perhaps I can use some clever config and halve the number of VOTER boards I use.

Many thanks, Steve

Anyone have the diagram for URI interface to an MSF 5000?
