Yes! I ran it that way with an r100 for a few weeks before moving it over to the msf5000. I had no issues running simpleusb and usbradio. I don't have any of the cracks or pops anywhere that you are referring to running usbradio. I do know what you are talking about but I have never experienced that on any of my equipment.

I know what you are talking about with the echo issue. That seems to just be a problem on the arch image on the hamvoip site as that is the only place I have heard it. I did try that image long and and having audio delays at almost 10 seconds and time just made it unusable. That was even using simpleusb. No problems running usbradio and dsp on the Debian image.
To make a long story short, the Debian image just works! No have had zero issues with it.

I have been playing with the full duplex mode using DSP decode (PL, carrier squelch) in and out on the RPI2 with DIAL and so far it seems to be on par with what Acid does on a PC.
There is some latency due to audio processing but its about 200 to 250 ms and seems to be stable. I have never seen an acid box with 0 latency on the full duplex audio.
In may opinion it woks just as well as an ACID set up on a pc for a single full duplex repeater node.
Can;t speak to the other questions though.

Ken,
Sorry, typo on my side about pin 21 and I just rang out the cable anyway.
I have an IAX client connected to Asterisk where I currently have the signaling and audio path IAX - Asterisk - Radio functioning properly.
The opposite path Radio - Asterisk - IAX is not functioning.
CTCSS (URI pin 7) goes from the pulled up 5 volts to 0 when the radio is receiving signal.
I'm assuming that signaling is present through Asterisk as I get a brief upscale indication on the IAX SPK bargraph and I get a caller ID from the URI node when the receiver receives a properly tone coded signal.
There is no audio being routed through to IAX. This is the issue.
Note: IAX works fine with other node types such as radio-gui, radio-gui-cell and radio-phone.
URI DB-25 pin
1. goes to the Radio PTT
7. goes to the CTCSS Detect from the radio and I have a 18k pullup attached to +5 at 14 20. goes to radio Gnd 21. goes to Radio Receive Audio out. This is no greater than 0 dbm.
22. goes to the radio flat Transmit Audio in.
We have flashing green indicating app_rpt application is running.
Any ideas?

Receive audio goes to mic in pin 9.
Actually - it should normally go to pin 21 "mic AC".
This has an attenuator in line.
It is possible to burn out the chip if you go direct to pin 9 and overdrive it.

This is where allstar has it nailed

on our system it sounds pretty decent. I'd like to see p25 and DMR

I would like to see asterisk being the common platform used for internet linking of any radio systems. It decouples the network from the technology.
Course this does remove the network operators from the god like status they have and the ensuing circle-jerk

I have a considerable investment into Fusion. I will support this effort in any way I can. I ordered one of the dongles that does Fusion, Dstar and DMR. I saw the YouTube video of the demonstration about this dongle in the Fusion mode.
I see alot of potential here in this group

Guys,
I haven't looked carefully as to which variants of AMBE are in use by
D-STAR, Fusion, etc...Doesn't the original AMBE patent expire fairly soon?The reason I'm asking is that I know there are some fledgling
open-source AMBE implementations out there. A couple years ago I
hacked CODEC2 into Asterisk for experimentation, thinking about
directly linking to HF via the FreeDV project--and, not wanting to
transcode from one low-bandwidth CODEC to another, making truly awful audio!After playing with it a few weeks, I didn't do much more...(I've
still got that code and it still works, if anyone wants to play with
it?)...Just wondering.

Mike,
You are correct in the statement that the DV4mini needs additional
hardware to handle the transcoding from a digital radio. Once I get
my nodes back up on my Raspberry Pi, I will work on an updated
version of the D-STAR channel driver that supports DMR and Fusion
AMBE encoding and decoding as well as radio control functionality for the DV4mini.Matthew Pitts

Actually the DV4Mini alone does not help tie Allstar into Wires-X.
In order to do that one must:1) Have an interface to the YSF network protocol
2) Decode and extract the AMBE frames from the streamed protocol
3) Transcode the frames to PCM at the proper sample rate using the
DVSI
AMBE3000 chipset
4) Send those frames to something like the already created USRP
channel driverIn reverse, 4, 3, 2, 1 to send data back to the YSF network. In
addition to the simple outline above, you would want to
a) Add audio filtering/shaping to make the AMBE audio more
acceptable to what we are used to on Allstar (one of the single
greatest aspects of Allstar is the audio quality)
b) Transfer of as much metadata between the networks as possibleThe DV4Mini is a radio module + digital modulator (DStar/DMR/YSF).
It has no AMBE encode/decode hardware so there is no way to
transcode the audio content. For that a "ThumbDV" or a DV3000
would be the hardware of choice. The DV4Mini could be used as a
user radio on an existing RF network, but one would still need the
AMBE3K to do the transcode.Mike
