I have not done it before, but the cable looks fine.
Is you RC210 set for active low on the PTT and COS on port 3?
When you receive on your repeater, does the PTT light on Port 3 on the RC210 light up?
If not, did you link the Port your repeater is on and the Port 3 on the RC210?
Kindest Regards
Jan van der Vyver

I made node 43801 using a Pi3 and URI. It is connected to port 3 of an Arcom RC210 Controller. The Controller is on the W9LKI repeater 147.105 and the system is fully functional for a long time. I can SSH into the node. I can connect to 43801 using my personal node 42119 and it shows connected on the Allstar Node Stats page. I used simpleusb-tune-menu item 2 to set the level as I have on other nodes I have built. When I try to DTMF or Voice call into the repeater it is not heard (meaning *3---- connect) or seen on the CLI. Activity by other nodes elicits a response on the CLI when they are connected.
The simpleusb.conf is set up as follows
eeprom=0
hwtype=0
rxboost=0
carrierfrom=usbinvert
ctcssfrom=no
txmixa=composite
txmixb=composite
invertptt=0
duplex=1
The node/controller uses the DMK Eng URI pinouts as follows:
URI dB25 Controller dB9
pin 1=ptt ............................. .......................pin 7=cos in
pin 8=cos ............................. ..................... pin 3=PTT out
pin 19=gnd ............................. ....................pin 6=gnd
pin 21=mic_in (what I call Tx Audio) .............pin 4=Tx Audio outout to radio
pin 22=left AC (what I call Rx Audio) ............pin 5=Rx Audio input from radio
Any help the group can provide as to set up of RC210 and suitability of the above settings would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I have been contacted by several stations expressing interest in some kind of JOTA Allstar connection. JOTA ir Jamboree on the Air is an international scouting event which will be held the weekend of October 14-16, 2016. Connecting scouts from all over the world it is typically held on the HF bands but with band conditions down especially HF DX it might be a good idea to consider Allstar.
I can offer a hub to do this if there is interest. Please let me know if there might be interest in your area. We would select dates and time periods for contacts. If you are connected to scouting or have a scouting group in your area that might want to participate please let me know.
This would be good PR for amateur radio and for Allstar and we might get some new young hams
Below is information on the event.

Get Ready to File Your JOTA Station Report
Last year we had 400 stations register but only 200 stations file a report. We're going to improve that this year. Icom America and Ray Novak, N9JA, have stepped up to help us with considerable incentive.
Every station that files a report will be entered into a drawing for an Icom ID-51A Plus Ultraviolet HT as the grand prize. Five runners up will receive an Icom America Ham Crew T-Shirt. These prizes are for the station. It's up to you to determine who gets it or how you share it. Only BSA stations are eligible.
Of course, everyone who files a report will receive the 2016 Jamboree on the Air Certificate.
We'll provide access to the reporting system right before JOTA weekend. Reports are due November 1, with the prize drawing held that week.
Designate someone on your team to collect the information needed for your report and follow the best practices noted below to make sure your report truly captures your event.
Thank you Icom America for your continued support to Scouting.
JOTA Station Report Best Practices
We've compiled a full list of best practices for filing your report. It includes: numbers, images, stories, and video. Check it out as you prepare for the largest Scouting event in the world ? Jamboree on the Air and Jamboree on the Internet.
Online JOTA Station Spotting and Scheduling
In addition to the DX spotting websites and systems, there is a Scout station spotting cluster at http://www.pi4raz.nl/jotacluster/cluster.php This may be a good way to see who's on the air and their frequency.
Dave Edwards, KD2E, and Andy O'Brien, K3UK, have developed a Scout scheduling page at http://www.obriensweb.com/sked/index.php?board=scouts You can use this to post your frequency and to pick up on other stations as well.
USA JOTA 2016 Patches Available
Patches are in stock and ready to ship. I've got mine and they look great. Don't miss out on getting enough for your JOTA participants and for your collection. Order through your local Scout Shop to avoid shipping costs. It's order number 634941.
Radio Scouting Net
Chris Overbey, WA5DM, has volunteered to host a monthly Radio Scouting Net on the second Thursday of every month. Held in July on 40 meters and in August on Echolink, the time has now moved to 9 PM Central to better accomodate schedules across the USA. It's on Echolink *JOTA-365* (480809) ? September 8.
Icom Scout Loan Stations
Icom America has provided 10 complete stations for loan to local councils since 2012. They are now in the process of updating the kits, replacing the IC-7200 with the IC-7300. We feel that the IC-7300 is a superb transceiver for demonstrating amateur radio to Scouts. With it's touch screen and spectrum display, it meets Scouts where they live, with their smartphone.
If you're interested in applying for a loan station for your council event, you'll learn more and find the application at Icom Station Loans.

Offered by the ARRL working with the Girl Scouts, this is a great way to involve Girl Scouts in your Jamboree on the Air event. Learn more at http://www.arrl.org/girl-scouts-radio-patch
