[arm-allstar] HF control was Kudos Doug!

[Doug Crompton]

Phil,

 I am trying to wrap my head around what you are doing. On the HF radio
side you are using COS and PTT or are you using COS and VOX to/from the
radio? If you establish a connection as long as neither end has COS true
then it should be unkeyed. You definitely don't want to use duplex=2 in
rpt.conf but maybe experiment with duplex=1 or 0. I have never done what
you are doing so I have no first hand knowledge. The second node you setup
is pseudo correct? So no FOB and therefore no COS? If that is the case
perhaps it somehow thinks it is full duplex when you come in via zoipier
and use the patch method. Allstar is full duplex and when using a device
that is full duplex like a phone or computer and zoipier or iaxrpt it would
probably assume that. In the windows version of iaxrpt you can select
duplex but I don't think you have that option in the Android version and I
have no idea about zoipier. If two people were running full duplex capable
endpoints like iaxrpt on a computer it would or could be truly full duplex,
both could remain keyed and talk back and forth. Just thinking out loud
here about what could be happening.

Maybe it would be better to not use the patch and instead use DTMF to
functions defined on the node you are coming in on to control the radio.
The functions would call the script and within the script would localplay
to that node. I probably need a better understanding of what you are doing.
