[arm-allstar] Using Allstar as a digital voter system

[Mike Sullivan]

I figured I was missing something. Is the RTCM the only interface that
reliably supports it? At $269 apiece, that's gonna hurt the wallet, on top
of setting up the PtP linking to make it work standalone.

Is there a Howto? That would probably brush up my questions on it.. lol.
Mainly, I'm assuming each receive radio needs an RTCM, as well as the
repeater receiver? We are upgrading our 2 meter machine with an amplifier
and new (to us) hardline, once that is done we're hoping to put a couple
receivers up to cover dead spots and improve handheld reception. We're also
probably going to put up a couple Allstar-linked 440 machines at those
sites too, for local coverage.
