Angelo, welcome aboard !

The answer to your question for the net is…

Outside of buying a pre-altered sound fob,

  There appears to be some provision out there or in the making to

use GPIO pins on the Pi for PTT and COR for radio/repeater

  so I sent this reply to the list in the hopes someone can add

something to that or point to some documentation.

these are channel drivers that enable the gpio on the raspberry pi. They need to be complied. I have a complier that will just compile the module. Maybe someone here can provide it to the OP. Would be great if these channel drivers can be included in regular builds of ASL.

I’m going to be busy for the next week (i think) but could you
send me a ‘peek’ at those raw channel driver files. I just want to
see what’s going on in a ‘study’ of it.

  But it all sounds good and I think we are missing the ball by not

utilizing the gpio.

Perhaps just needs a ‘kick-start’

ALSARadio and RPiRadio could be built and added (as a test)
SimpleUSB and USBRadio could be built and replace the existing
channel drivers. That was going to be my next step. I don’t know
what the dev team is planning.

Thanks for that info.

  I guess for me, I'll wait a bit and see what they come up with if

it’s in active dev.

But it’s probably time we hit this one.

Ok Copy, so far with testing the ALSARadio it seems to work for me. There may have been an issue with identifying DTMF but I was doing something really experimental with a RTL-SDR and rtf_fm.

I was planning on trying SimpleUSB and USBradio channel drivers with a USB fob and RPI gpio because I have a system thats setup like that already that I use for Packet Data and other digital modes.

              Why don't I get email from Doogie telling me I

should run a different version of AllStarLink?

(i think) but could you send me a ‘peek’ at those

                  But it all sounds good and I think we

are missing the ball by not utilizing the gpio.

Perhaps just needs a ‘kick-start’

welcome aboard !

                            The

answer to your question for the net
is…

                            Outside

of buying a pre-altered sound fob,

                            There

appears to be some provision out there
or in the making to use GPIO pins on the
Pi for PTT and COR for radio/repeater

                            so I

sent this reply to the list in the hopes
someone can add something to that or
point to some documentation.

That’s kinda where I want to head to…

SimpleUSB and gpio

  Would make it work similar to my radio nodes using the parallel

port.

  Suppose to rain again this weekend.. perhaps I'll dable

onward…

Joe,
You must be on the right track, if Doogie is spewing FUD. Keep us informed.

I don’t get what all the resistance is when discussing it on his group. its not a fantasy, or a fallacy, there is nothing wrong with using the gpio of the raspberry pi and its quite easy to implement, you don’t even have to solder the cmxxx chip. as a matter of fact, on other computer/radio projects its your only option like with SVXLink. Its a popular topic and being asked about because people have a need, why shun it as a useful function. I respect everyone but I read some statements that were a little off key in the spirit of being a ham radio enthusiast. It almost felt like I was in the support group of a commercial software product and was asking a question that violated a SLA, lmao.

You did good Steve by at least starting its development on the channel drivers, when I found them I assumed they were in dev but workable, they did work. With the Baofeng 888 combination the audio opamp takes 3V to power, as far as voltage its perfect for RPi COR and if not, we are skilled enough to figure out a circuit for another radio; use a transistor to switch ground. You also need to include parts doing a RPi>CMXXX>BAOFENG888 setup too.

I don’t have a problem with the USB FOB, I have one, did the mod and built it into my custom node. I would of wired it to the RPi which was two inches away with ease if there were official channel drivers that support it from either distro. The worry about any RF on the RPi is silly too, all the electronics are susceptible to RF, the naked Cmxxx chip and any USB audio already has an issue with the RF from the nearby radio. thats enough of a challenge for some.

So why even care about the RPi GPIO? at some point in the future you might not even need a radio to integrate with the RPi, imagine that. The Pi can already transmit with a GPIO pin. You can modulate with enough power to use around the house, look at https://github.com/F5OEO/rpitx …and it won’t be long before a RPi adds audio in to the hardware and even if they never do there are other micro computers that do. I though us hams are suppose to think outside the box.
