[arm-allstar] AllStar on Local Server

[dan at ozment.net]

Hi, Doug.

The Allstar node will be at a remote location because we do not have 
internet access at the repeater site. I briefly flipped it over to the 
repeater last night, and after I keyed up I got it into a looping 
"kerchunk" because of the tail. I believe I was listening for tone on 
the Allstar radio. I will double check that tonight. I think I'm 
following you on the output tone following the input. So, as soon as the 
user unkeys and stops sending tone the repeater should drop it's tone. 
So, COS should also drop, I assume. I will check that.

If I am correct that I'm listening for tone coming from the repeater and 
I'm still getting the loop will my next step be to use rxaudiodelay?

Thanks!
Dan
