Each port would be a Allstar server connected via a local LAN. You oculd have limitless ports for the cost of an additional board and interface and the overall cost would be far less than an expensive controller.<br><br>If you do want to connect Allstar to a port on an existing controller it can certainly be done. It just requires a little different setup. I hope that answers your question.<br></font><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 20:02:13 -0600<br>From: n4wgy.ham@gmail.com<br>To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>Subject: [arm-allstar] Link radio interface with duplex rptr<br><br><div dir="ltr">Greetings everyone, hope you're all well.<div>What ways might I go about interfacing the audio and ptt ports of a link radio into my Allstar Rpi/URIx duplex repeater? </div><div>Thank you for any/all information!</div><div><div><div class="ecxgmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr">--</div><div dir="ltr">Robert Conklin<div><font size="4"><b><a href="http://qrz.com/db/N4WGY" target="_blank">N4WGY</a></b></font></div></div></div></div></div></div>
