[arm-allstar] Help For A Newbie???

Hello to the list.  I'm a newbie to Allstar, but very familiar with Asterisk
and Raspberry Pi.  

 

I'm having trouble setting up my Allstar node.   I'm using a Raspberry Pi 2
and a URI interface connected to a Yaesu FT-8800.   I downloaded the image
from http://hamvoip.org/RPi2/RPi2_V1.0_Allstar.zip.   The first time I
booted up the Pi I was surprised to hear voice from the Pi sent out over RF,
so I'm confident I at least had the thing working outbound.

 

Today I went back through the first time setup and plugged in my Allstar
Node Number (43253), and outbound no longer seems to work.  I did my best to
enter the other values, but may have made an incorrect selection along the
way.   I reloaded image to the card and started over from scratch, but
cannot get beyond this.   Before I set up the node number I was able to run
/usr/local/sbin/sayip.sh, and it sent the IP via RF.  Now, I get nothing.  I
see nothing in the Asterisk console when I do that (starting it with
asterisk -rvvvvvvv).   And the URI doesn't appear to do anything.   

 

But, when I key up the HT and send DTMF tones that are all decoded by
asterisk.  I was also able to confirm that I can link to another Allstar
node by keying the link command and checking the node stats using the GUI.
I also saw the connect info in the Asterisk console.  But, I don't think I'm
getting audio.  Nothing ever makes the URI key the radio like it did after
the first install.

 

I'm probably missing key details here, but wondered if anyone could help me
make progress or find the right resource.

 

Not sure what other information would be useful, but here is what I think is
the USB setup.

 

 

[root at alarmpi asterisk]# more simpleusb.conf

; simple usb configration added by simpleusb-config.sh

;  2016.03.12.1137

 

[general]

ctcssfrom=no

txmixa=voice

Any info appreciated.

 

 

Thanks,
