<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Since your rxboost is off and your rxlevel is very low,
I believe your physical interface from your radio is much too hot. you are over
driving the rpi in my experience which will cause your lack of tx level
control.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>my suggestion is to add a resistor from the receiver to
the URI audio input.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>to adjust start by playing the status message "*70" (you
might need to do this from the client because your dtmf might not be working
yet, rpt fun <node #> "*70"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>then set the txlevel A to the correct audio
level Ignore the receiver audio at this point!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Next</FONT><FONT face=Calibri> reset your rx level
closer to 500. one of my nodes is 450 btw you might have to repeat this step
until you get the resistor value correct. fine tune the rxlevel using
simpleusb-tune-menu settings</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>verify dtmf decode by going into the client and hitting
one digit at a time. the client should display each digit</FONT></DIV>

<DIV id=yiv8297402367yui_3_16_0_1_1440793865684_83420 dir=ltr>The RX level is
currently set at 50 for simpleusb, and it has a normal level. DTMF works just
fine. I'm able to set the RX level in simpleusb-tune-menu, that works, it's just
the TX level adjustment does nothing. I played with usbradio, and I found it odd
that the level settings in usbradio had to be set differently than on simpleusb.
For example when I played with usbradio the RX level was set at 500 and was
normal audio level. When I switched to simpleusb a setting off 500 for RX was
way too hot. In fact the default settings in usbradio were just right. The
default RX settings in simpleusb however were way too hot and the default TX
only slightly hot. I switched to simpleusb because my audio going out to the
allstar network was slightly broken up, but I wasn't using any of the DSP
features anyway. Just a COR signal.<BR id=yui_3_16_0_1_1440793865684_86877

<DIV> Andrew I have been through this several times myself first question
what is your receive level your transmit a level and your transmit b level
if you hit option P you'll get them also is rxboost turned on or off and are you
using any Pre or De emphasis settings?</DIV>

<DIV id=yiv7840868639yui_3_16_0_1_1440793865684_71085 dir=ltr>I think i've
seen something about this before but I wanted to slightly reduce the TX level
a bit, and using menu option 3 I lowered it some and no change. I lowered it
some more and no change. So I lowered it way down and still same audio level.
Audio is on source A. The RX level works just fine but the TX level does
nothing. I did however discover that alsamixer will change the TX level. Am I
missing something here? The node is running on a Pi2.</DIV>
