[arm-allstar] Install and configure docs and radio settings

[Doug Crompton]

Joe,

 Thanks.  I am not familiar with that interface but in reviewing the web page it looks like there are pots for hardware level settings on the interface. This would effect the SW levels set in Allstar. I would think the best thing t do would be to leave the Allstar levels set at the 500/500 default and adjust the HW pots for the proper level. Is that possible?

I see you have both carrierfrom and ctcssfrom turned on. I reviewed the instructions and they only refer to echolink which is a windows only program and they talk about a windows setup.  Was there specific instructions for Allstar? It looks like they use VOX for PTT but I am not clear on how they get COS.

Subject: [arm-allstar] Install and configure docs and radio settings So far I have had positive comments about the configuration and documentation on version 1.2.1 but as with anything it can always be improved.  If you have any comments on the documentation or initial configuration on 1.2.1 please forward them to me. Your input will certainly be considered and will help to improve future releases.

I would also like to start a radio database that will help with an automated simpleusb.conf setup on the next release. In most cases the only thing that changes in simpleusb is the "carrierfrom" setting depending on the phase of your node radios COS signal. We know about Alinco radios but not many others. If you can forward the make and model of your radio and any changes you make to simpleusb.conf it would be helpful. Also your rx and txa levels for that radio and if it is connected to a standard port on the radio or is a custom modification.

Some radios that are programmable, like Motorola's, and can have the COS phase set either way.
