Hi John,<br>
<br>
All the software is already installed in the RPi2-3 hamvoip release; you<br>
can run the chan_usbradio driver with no changes needed.<br>
<br>
So, in your rpt.conf file, for the node you're wanting to use usbradio<br>
with, simply use a statement like:<br>
<br>
rxchannel=Radio/usb<br>
<br>
...where "usb" is the node stanza in the usbradio.conf file.<br>
<br>
I run usbradio on several repeaters where I still have PC computer based<br>
controllers. My experience is that the software performance on a RPi3 is<br>
still well below the performance I see on the PC, mainly amounting to<br>
audio clicks, etc....But, it will work and certainly works better on the<br>
RPi3 than the RPi2.<br>
<br>
I'll also comment that more software enhancements are coming in the next<br>
beta release, providing additional enhancement over the V1.02. More<br>
details about this soon.<br>
<br>
