[arm-allstar] Iaxrpt testing and solution

[David McGough]

Hi Everyone,

Doug & I have spent the last hour+ testing all the scenarios we can think 
of related to the IaxRpt software. We found that the PC version of the 
software and the mobile device version function subtly differently in 
regard to CallerID info that gets passed to app_rpt.

Ultimately, I think the issues are now worked-around in the new one-way 
audio test in app_rpt. I've placed an updated asterisk package in the 
repository, ready for download, that implements the solution.

Now, the preferred IaxRpt configuration (whether PC or phone) is to have 
the CallerID (or name) field set to your callsign. And, have the number 
field set with a single 0 (zero)...For the PC version of the software, 
the fields would look like this:

Name:  KB4FXC

Number: 0


Please give this a try-

73, David KB4FXC
