[arm-allstar] Raspberry Pi 2 Version 1.1 Release Date?

Wed Jun 10 21:27:10 EST 2015

Yes, my mistake.... 1.1  not 2.2 !!! I will update the web page to reflect what I said here.

Yes, the new code will support PTT, COS, CTCSS via the onboard GPIO. This should now even be possible on the BBB although we have not tested it yet.

My comment was that you do have the choice now to modify a cheap USB sound FOB and that for some that is just as easy as wiring up the interface circuitry for the onboard GPIO. Either way you will have to do some soldering and need some parts. The easiest, albeit most expensive, way is the DMK URI.

The new code will also include a greatly reduced audio delay through Allstar and updates for the Weather scripts and Allmon and updated kernels.

      The release dates of RPi2 2.2 and BBB
          1.3 have been delayed mainly due to personal commitments among
          the group. We are getting back on track again and I am hoping
          by the end of the month we will have both out. Doing it right
          involves significant coding and time and none of us have had
          that in the past month.

          I am putting together the interface schematics and a two node
          box which I will be putting online shortly. It does involve
          some circuitry and to be honest, at least for me, it would be
          easier to modify a FOB! Have you looked into that? How-to on
          the web page.

    OooooK 

    I guess I'm confused.   

    I have 3 new RPi2 boards on the way.  But no USB fobs ordered yet,
    no problem. 

     If I read the web site correctly, "We expect to have a 1.1 version
    of the RPi2 image out about the beginning of June 2015. This will
    add GPIO support allowing use of unmodified USB FOBS".  I  would
    like to use GPIO for the PTT and COR/COS signals if that is what was
    planed.  Is this correct?  Im also confused on the version numbers
    now.  

    Yep I know how time slips away when there is to many irons in the
    fire.  No major hurry's here, just wanted to get some ideas.

    Mike
