<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I am playing with the BBB. I am running a simplex node, the
output
transmit on the input of the local repeater and listens on the
repeater
output. I dial in using Zoiper on an old smart phone or iaxRpt on
my
laptop to access the repeater.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The following condition accrued with all the
default
settings except <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><i
style="mso-bidi-font-style:
normal">nounkeyct</i></b> was changed from zero to one to stop
courtesy tones.
And stop the transmitter from keying every time it sees a signal:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
When first powered up, or if there is a power hit, or if astres.sh
is executed,
the node will key up and send an ID even if no one is connected to
the
node.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>If there is traffic
on the
frequency and the COR is operated within the ID period, the node
will continue
to send an ID every ten minutes as long as there is activity on
the frequency.<br style="mso-special-character:line-break">
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br
style="mso-special-character:line-break">
<!--[endif]--></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If 10 minutes elapses with no receive activity,
(no COR
activity on the freq), the node will stop sending the ID even if a
signal is
received again after that period.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When someone is connected to the node, the ID
works
correctly and sends an ID every 10 minutes. But again, after the
user
disconnects from the node, if the BBB node receives an
over-the-air signal from
the repeater after the last ID, The BBB node will continue to key
up and send
an ID every 10 minutes as long as there is activity on the
repeater. <br>
<br>
This will continue as long as the repeater is busy. When the
repeater is
no longer in use and there is 10 minutes of silence, then the BBB
will stop
sending the ID even if the repeater keys up again after the 10
minutes of
silence.<br>
<br>
If I key the BBB node and give my call, and no one answers in the
next 10
minutes, The BBB node will act correctly and not send the ID
again.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>It is only when it
sees incoming traffic
within the ID period that it will keep keying up and sending the
ID.<br>
<br>
I hope that was clear,<br>
<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">BTW the above scenario also happens if the node
is operating
on a simplex frequency instead of a repeater frequency.</p>
