[arm-allstar] node insists on sending CW ID every idtime

[Steve Goldsmith]

Hi,

I have a node (46296) that really, really wants to send CW ID every idtime interval and I can’t quite figure out why.   We don’t have Internet access up on the hill where our repeater is so we use this allstar node over a 220mhz rf link in order to provide echolink/allstar connectivity to the repeater.

Duplex is set to 1, idtime is 600000, nounkeyct is set to 1

Seems my->mustid is always set to 1 (see dump below) on the node.   If I copy everything in /etc/asterisk from the problem node to another asterisk node here in the shack and change only the node number in rpt.conf, things appear to behave as expected, it doesn’t id over the rf channel unless something causes the rf channel to transmit first, and mustid is set to 0 most of the time. Kerchunking the node in the shack on the rf channel behaves as expected, no tail, no courtesy tone and no id.   it will id if I issue a dtmf command which causes the node to transmit on the rf channel first (assuming idtime has been exceeded, otherwise it does not id).

Any ideas what’s got this so eager to ID? Thanks & 73
