[arm-allstar] No electricity

[Luc Drolet VE2LUQ]

Hello to you,

Good idea, a relay, the coil on the AC and contacts of the relay on GPIO to the Raspberry PI

But how to do with the GPIO of Rasberry PI?  I/O
I'm never experimenting that GPIO
I have tests and reading to do to fully understand the GPIO system
if it is possible, moreover if it is possible to have a message on the airwaves or to have the "ROGER BEEP" etc. changed automatically,
a method for us to know that he has no electricity at this site?

Thank you for your ideas
