I think we are missing the point. We have 2 kinds of people
here…

1- Those that write and code software (with feedback from users to

debug, inspire and suggest)------------ (A huge undertaking)

2- Those that implement the software and run around installing and

maintaining the hardware. ------------ (also a huge undertaking)
respect all, brother.

So, this hardy guy, is asking the softy guys to add a feature -

automatic WX announcements. There is no ways the majority of us are
going to suddenly learn how to write scripts, software etc.

So in the spirit of Xmas, we are asking for a gift. Hi!

But hey, there are not many volunteers writing software, so this is

going to remain a suggestion until someone takes on this idea. But I
do want to add, that I think it is a very worthwhile feature and
would

 be a huge selling point for D-Star, AllStar to have this. I mean,

all hams talk about the weather, don’t they? Besides, it is good for
warning about impending inclement weather and even the public could
monitor the repeaters to make use of a “value-added service” . Good
for promoting Amateur Radio.

Let's do what the honeybees do when their forage bees numbers are

dropping, feed some bees a bit of royal jelly and turn them into
forage bees.

So let's feed up any potential software developers to build up their

numbers.

May I be the first to wish everyone a festive season, travel safely

and don’t eat too much cholesterol.

Great. Then start coding and developing.

Good points. However...it depends on how the question is asked:

1. "Gee...this seems like it would be a good thing to do. I've searched Google/Bing/Yahoogroups/voip-info.org/etc and haven't found anything like this. Anyone working on it? Anyone need a beta tester? I'd like to help...maybe if it worked this way....what does everyone think???"

2. "I want a weather script. Why hasn't ? written one yet? This software is a POS. X does this. Why doesn't Y do this?"

It doesn't take much to learn how to bash (or shell, or c-shell) script. But, it's not an immediate rush of instant gratification. Someone CAN do it for you. But then you're dependent on them (and their time and inclination) to support it. I believe in self-sufficiency.

So...let's take a look at what's needed to provide this functionality:

1. A repeater controller that can play back audio files. Anyone know of a good one? (hint: that's the software this list supports)
2. Audio files of the weather. Hmmm....where do these come from?
3. Some 'automated' way of either a) downloading pre-recorded weather reports or b) some way of generating audio files from text.

So...let's take it one at a time (and this is biased towards the US. Sorry, that's where I live. That's the weather service I use)

1. Asterisk app_rpt. Read the documentation. Can app_rpt, under the controlling software do this? Of course...why else would they have all those wonderful voice announcements that Allison Smith spent so much time DONATING to the cause? So, we've established that the controller CAN play back audio.

2. This is variable. At least here in the US, there is no consistency as to whether the local WX office to the repeater location will have audio files (podcasts, computer generated, what have you) of the current, forecast, significant weather, bulletins, etc. So, we have to assume that WE will have to 1) grab the textual data, 2) strip out the parts we want, 3) convert the text to speech, 4) make a decision as to whether to store for later/on-demand retrieval or transmit immediately (alert).

3. Use a combination of bash, perl, and cepstral text to speech with the proper encoding bit-rate. Yeah, you have to spend a couple dollars. But it works better than the free stuff.

The author(s) (Duuude) of app_rpt are busy enough with Real Life, and may or may not be able to do this. Expecting them to do so is, at best, imho, an imposition on their time, especially when the request sounds more like a demand. The software is free, as in free beer. Try approaching the functionality of asterisk with any of the commercial off-the-shelf hardware controllers. The other stuff can't hold a candle to this package. But with that, comes the need to get out of the appliance operator mindset (anyone can solder up some cables and hook them into an appliance controller and get it to work with the limited set of commands possible...). Running this controller is NOT plug and play...but with that comes the capability to pretty much do anything you want. But, like most open source, sometimes you just have to figure it out for yourself.

That being said...I'll post my weather scripts on my station website for your perusal, downloading, etc. YOU are responsible for installing the support software (perl, sox, and cepstral with william-8K voice files are the only additions I can recall of the top of the noggin) for making them work. But, they DO work, and have been active on my system for the last year. No guarantee that they will work for you (especially if you're outside the US...since they're based on US Metar formats and weather service text files...which means YOU have to do some digging and code bashing). But, maybe they'll inspire you to push your own comfort envelope a bit.

I'll post the URL later. I need to get some Real Job work done...

I haven’t read all of the post, but what are you looking for? If you want NOAA Weather then try this. You can make a cron job to run the script.

I have used this script. Works well.

asterisk at home festival weather configuration

MP3 Audio directly from NOAA! Updated URLs on 12-15-06

If you are in the San Diego NOAA Office area (and maybe others, check

your regional NOAA Office homepage from http://weather.gov/), you can

get an audio file of the current forecast for your zone and play it

directly.

For the San Diego NOAA Office area, go to

http://newweb.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/ and click on the Audio selection under

Forecasts. Get the URL of the audio file for your zone from the map.

Create an announcement in wav format from:

http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

I like the UK-Audrey voice, but try some others too.

Make something like:

latest-forecast.wav “Please wait while I download the latest forecast”

select-weatherorvmc.wav

“Press 1 for voicemail press 2 for the latest weather forecast”

You will have to convert the wav files from 16000Hz to 8000Hz and maybe

speed them up a bit (135%) and reduce the volume (60%) before you use

them. Put them in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds named latest-forecast.wav and

select-weatherorvmc.wav

Add something like this to your extensions.conf (maybe in the rans

<http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/rans> section) to get the latest

forecast when you dial whatever extension (like 865) that you choose.

My extensions.conf for audio weather:

exten => 865,1,Answer

exten => 865,2,Playback(latest-forecast)

exten => 865,3,System(/usr/bin/curl -shttp://www.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/data/audio/LAXSAFC42.mp3 > /tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3)

exten => 865,4,Wait(1)

exten => 865,5,MP3Player(/tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3)

exten => 865,6,System(rm /tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3 -f)

exten => 865,7,Hangup

If you have trouble, make sure you have curl installed, change the path

above if necessary. find / -type f -name “curl” will find your curl

executable. I’m using MP3Player instead of Playback because I don’t have

a sound card in the Asterisk box so mpg123 fails when it tries to use

/dev/dsp. I suppose there is a way to have a dummy dev, but I don’t know

how. If you do use Playback instead of MP3Player, don’t use the .mp3

file extension in your extensions.conf.

If possible, how to i build the thing??

The probably easiest way to get an answer to your question is to determine
it emperically. Download the following image:

and IMAGE copy it (after un-tarring) to the flash drive (using dd or equivalent).

If it boots, and “talks” to the ethernet, etc, then it works.

Ramesh runs it with the allstar ISO not Limey. I have a T5710 in my Truck and its installed with the Allstar ISO as well. My ALLSTAR node is setup as simple since the Thin clients didn’t work very well trying to process DSP config. I read somewhere that Limey only talked to certain hardware that my Thin Client didn’t have. So tried the ISO and with the Help of Ramesh was able to get a simple ALLSTAR node setup and running well.

so I have to do it from the machine itself.

so to do so I downloaded ubuntu live cd to boot from a dvd reader and I have limey tar file on a usb stick.

I try to find where the hell in monted the damn ide flash disk and just cant… I do have an Icone on the desktop but its a symlink and cant find where its pointing…

So I am right now downloading the centos 5.5 live dvd, hoping it will be more clear where the damn thing is…

Petem001 · December 25, 2011, 5:49am

Finally got Limey on the machine…

(Did it with ubuntu live cd , took sometime to figure out where the damn drive was hidden but I got it…)

Limey wont boot properly, it stop at :

isapnp:No plug & Play device found

So from what I understand, since it wont see a URI connected to the machine, it wont continu booting.

I dont want to use a URI i want to use the onboard audio and the onboard serial port for ptt/cor… too bad, will have to find something else…

Unless someone ahve a solution ;-))))

that would be a very nice xmass present ;-))

I built a ribbon cable with two 44 pin connectors on it for just that task. That way I can use my Mac. On CentOS I’m not sure where your removable media will be… maybe in /dev/disk/something?

The probably easiest way to get an answer to your question is to determine
it emperically. Download the following image:

http://stats.allstarlink.org/limeylinux/downloads/cfimg-i586-via-1.1.5.tar.gz

and IMAGE copy it (after un-tarring) to the flash drive (using dd or equivalent).

If it boots, and “talks” to the ethernet, etc, then it works.
Otherwise, it doesnt.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] Limey Linux on a HP T5630 Thin Client

I Have a few T5630 thin client that was donated to me (spec: 1ghz CPU , 1 gig of ram, 1 Gig flash drive)

they have a VIA chipset that have Video , network, and audio device

I am wondering if I could use that thin client with Limey to do a Allstar node AND an echolink node…

I would connect that to port 3 of my rc210 controler that I have for my 2 M and 70 cm repeater’s.

If possible, how to i build the thing??

I know a few thing about Linux but I am no way a guru… I do prefer a windows machine, but I know that Linux in more stable…

So is it possible or am I dreaming?

forgot to tell you that there is a serial and printerl port to the machine

you can see the spec there:

It had the fast processor, 512MB flash drive and 512MB RAM. has no trouble installing LL but would not boot. Did not really expect it to.

Limey only supports VERY specific motherboards. The “via” version is ONLY
for a couple of VIA motherboards.

it has nothing do with the URI at all.

Finally got Limey on the machine…

(Did it with ubuntu live cd , took sometime to figure out where the damn drive was hidden but I got it…)

Limey wont boot properly, it stop at :

isapnp:No plug & Play device found

So from what I understand, since it wont see a URI connected to the machine, it wont continu booting.

I dont want to use a URI i want to use the onboard audio and the onboard serial port for ptt/cor… too bad, will have to find something else…

Unless someone ahve a solution ;-))))

that would be a very nice xmass present ;-))

I built a ribbon cable with two 44 pin connectors on it for just that task. That way I can use my Mac. On CentOS I’m not sure where your removable media will be… maybe in /dev/disk/something?

The probably easiest way to get an answer to your question is to determine
it emperically.  Download the following image:

http://stats.allstarlink.org/limeylinux/downloads/cfimg-i586-via-1.1.5.tar.gz

and IMAGE copy it (after un-tarring) to the flash drive (using dd or equivalent).

If it boots, and "talks" to the ethernet, etc, then it works.

Otherwise, it doesnt.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] Limey Linux on a HP T5630 Thin Client
I Have a few T5630 thin client that was donated to me (spec: 1ghz CPU , 1 gig of ram, 1 Gig flash drive)

they have a VIA chipset that have Video , network, and audio device

I am wondering if I could use that thin client with Limey to do a Allstar node AND an echolink node..

I would connect that to port 3 of my rc210 controler that I have for my 2 M and 70 cm repeater’s.

If possible, how to i build the thing??

I know a few thing about Linux but I am no way a guru.. I do prefer a windows machine, but I know that Linux in more stable..

So is it possible or am I dreaming?

forgot to tell you that there is a serial and printerl port to the machine

you can see the spec there:

I tried doing the same on one of the thin clients. A friend gave it to me as she was no longer using it for MagicJack. It had the fast processor, 512MB flash drive and 512MB RAM. has no trouble installing LL but would not boot. Did not really expect it to. I gave the computer to some one else to use with a Magic Jack after reinstalling WinXPe (Windows XP embedded). Don’t have time to really mess with it.
