[arm-allstar] Mute or attenuate link audio during repeater conversation

Eric,

 I think that comes under the category of something that could be done in SW but is not there now. But the question is would it really be practical? When your local RF quit the other audio would come back. I think that would be very confusing to the locals. They would not know who they could talk to and who they couldn't.

Also be careful of receive only connections. If you were to connect transceive somewhere else while that receive only connection was in place the nodes on the transceive side would hear the audio but not be able to respond. It would be confusing to them as they would not know they were going through a node that had a receive only connection. For that reason I never use receive only (monitor) mode. I suppose it has uses but not when others are connected transceive.

Subject: [arm-allstar] Mute or attenuate link audio during repeater	conversation

I have a UHF repeater running on a BBB.  We are often connected in receive only to one of the busy nodes in the USA.  When the local users have a conversation on the UHF repeater, locally, the link audio is as loud as the repeat audio.   Does anyone have a way to mute or attenuate the link audio when the local repeater is in use?   73,  Eric 4Z1UG / WA6IGRAllstar Node: 28422Check out my Podcast at: www.qsotoday.com4Z1UG at guth.usIsrael Direct: 077-950-9451
