[arm-allstar] radioless node

[ARM Allstar]

Hi Rick,

Currently, the best solution for using a Bluetooth device with AllStar is 
the DVSwitch Mobile application, running on an Android device.  I've 
personnally used the iTalkie mic and it works well.

Bluetooth PTT speaker/mic?  For instance the iTalki or HYS microphones 
sold on Amazon.  I just purchased a new car and there is little space to 
mount a radio, but I could put a raspberry pi in the arm rest, which has 
a power connector. I could put a hot spot in the arm rest, but that 
doesn't give me Allstar.  My car provides a personal hotspot.

Second question, can I install Allstar on my Zumspot and have it do 
double duty?

I would think I would need to be able to specify the bluetooth mic 
connection rather than a USB soundcard. I'm not sure if the standard 
driver would work, and what needs to be added to allstar software.

Is there any interest in this? It would certainly solve my problem.

thanks,

Rick KR8T
