I built Magic PTT (solo dev, private project). Browser live now · Android beta available · iOS soon. Create an invite-only My Room on Nexus; licensed PTT from app/browser. Testing home ASL3 tie-in — few seats, need a live node. ptt.shtfrn.com → support@magicticket.help — ASL3 beta, callsign + setup note. I'm integrating the setup wizard in my App to easily attach your node into your "My Room" to be able to give TX capabilities for verified HAM licensed users in your room.
What's the relevance of this to AllStarLink? Is this an ASL client?
No Sir — it’s not an ASL client. Magic PTT is internet PTT for our net (browser/app, verified hams).
ASL relevance: we’re building this so ASL3 repeater/node operators can easily extend reach without rebuilding their system — licensed users can listen and talk on your repeater path from anywhere (phone, laptop, browser) while you keep running ASL3 as usual.
Each operator gets a My Room — a private space only for that user, with full invite and member management (who’s in, who can TX, etc.). The beta SIP bridge ties your repeater ASL3 node into that room on Nexus so RF on your repeater and invited app users share audio. Room-scoped, not dumped into the main hub.
Still not sure the relevance to the ASL community. I'll leave it here but discussion about this other project should occur elsewhere.
To directly answer your question about relevance:
Magic PTT is not an ASL client. It’s an internet-based PTT platform that lets ASL3 node and repeater operators easily add remote users (via browser or app) while keeping their existing ASL3 setup running unchanged.
We use a SIP bridge to connect an ASL3 node into a private “My Room.” This keeps everything room-scoped so the repeater audio and invited app users share the same space without affecting the broader network.
What node operators have found useful so far:
• One-click announcements — upload any audio file and it gets converted and played on the node automatically.
• Timed weather and information announcements that can be scheduled to play at set times.
• Full user and TX control per room from the browser or app.
We’re also working on AI audio enhancements that take the incoming radio audio, clean it up, and upconvert it so it better matches the quality level our Nexus engine already produces on the IP side. The goal is to make the experience noticeably clearer for remote users without changing anything on the node itself.
Everything is being built based on feedback from actual ASL3 operators who want to extend their reach in a simple way.
I posted this in the 3rd party section because it’s meant as a tool that works with ASL3 nodes, not something that replaces or alters how AllStarLink functions.
Would really love for you to check it out. It started out to be just a program for my facebook group members but as i’ve been building it i’ve just been adding more useful things.
I run all of my servers onsite with emergency backup power. Fiber internet with Starlink failovers if a disaster hits. no 3rd party dependance other than starlink.
