App_rpt-users Digest, Vol 87, Issue 23

Log into the RTCM and select “d” for diagnostics and pres “1” for set initial tone level then set for 3khz deviation. That’s what I do at least. They match my Acid nodes.

Hi all,

For those of you using RTCMs on your repeaters… I was wondering what

procedure you use to set the TX level on your RTCM. There are great tools

built into the RTCM/Allstar for setting squelch and RX levels, but TX is

left pretty much to your imagination.

Curious how folks are going about this. On the hardware-only path

controllers (SCOM, Arcomm, etc…) it’s very clearly documented about how

they’d like you to set levels throughout the audio path. There is even

reasonably good documentation for setting TX levels with a URIx. The RTCM,

not so much.

I’ve got a few of the RTCMs deployed now and things sound really good, but

I am following my own made-up procedure based on what I think it should

be. Got to wondering how others are doing it and if I could improve my

methods any.

Thanks for sharing!

James

Set 'em the same way as any other device. Send a tone with cop,4 and adjust

(with the RTCM pot) for 3KHz (no P/L) on your service monitor.

for example:

*CLI> rpt cmd cop 4

where = any string or number (command parser is kinda dumb)

Repeat above command (type up arrow) to stop tone.

Hey Folks,

Check out the new stats server. It’s working much, much better. Very fast

now. Be sure to check out bubble chart’s new look. Good examples are

http://stats.allstarlink.org/getstatus.cgi?2135 and

http://stats.allstarlink.org/getstatus.cgi?2560

It’s still a work in progress and it would be great if everybody banged on

it to <http://stats.allstarlink.org> see how it does under load. We know

the PTT time isn’t always updated properly. If you see any other bugs

please let us know. A post here is good.

A big thank you to David KB4FXC for his work getting Apache tuned and

tweaking the db and programs, to Jim WB6NIL for providing the new server

and restored backups and to all of you for your patience during the outage.

There’s more work yet to be done but were real close to wrapping up this

project.

BTW, Jim is out of the hospital :slight_smile:

The new server is getting killed by all the status updates and requests.

I’m not sure if Apache is to blame or if the server can’t provide enough

threads or just what the problem is. It looks like there is plenty of free

memory.

If you have experience with high volume CGI applications on Debian/Ubuntu

please email me.

Righto, I got most of it running.

NOT for the inexperienced as the passwords are hidden deep in www conf

dirs, and it exercised my find and grep skillz to the max! But therein

is enough information for most l33t hax0rs to find it. Email me if you

want to WORK on it and I’ll be more concise.

Now to add some usbaudio and serialPTT goodness and see if the voter

will fly!

What fun!

I set the rx up so it reads 3 Khz deviation on the RTCM’s built in console meter, then set the tx level so I get 3Khz out of my transmitter. (No PL)

I then change from 1khz tone to 800hz followed by 1.8 Khz and verify that the levels dont move as tone frequency changes. Changing levels indicates a pre/de emphasis issue.

If using PL you have to account for that deviation, unless you filter if you with your IFR.

Cheers,

Jesse
