[arm-allstar] remote base node functioning question--real hamlib example

[David McGough]

Hi,

The most simplistic way to utilize hamlib is via simple shell-script calls
from AllStar.  Here is a super simple -working- sample that demonstrates
changing to channels 1, 2 and 3 on a 706mk2g.

....Add this to rpt.conf in the desired functions stanza:


[functions]
921=cmd,/usr/local/bin/rigctl -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -m 311 -s 9600 -c0x58 h 1
922=cmd,/usr/local/bin/rigctl -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -m 311 -s 9600 -c0x58 h 2
923=cmd,/usr/local/bin/rigctl -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -m 311 -s 9600 -c0x58 h 3




So, DTMF commands *921, *922, *923 change to channels 1, 2 or 3.  Note 
that the path to rigctl and path for the serial device must be correct.

I use much more sophisticated scripting, including a sqlite3 database, 
etc....The sky is the limit!  And, this is all really quite easy to do, 
supporting a multitude of different radios.
