ideally you want to have all green BER showing here after you finished your transmission, if not then we need to tune it. After following this article you will be able to put together a multimode amateur digital repeater or high powered hotspot that can be connected to the internet for world wide digital communication. You will find it will easy to decode your radio RF signal in low BER%, but if your radio have big frequency offset, it will hard to decode voice and data in your Digital radio. For TX bypass/cut off low pass filter stage in audio processor, provide new DC bias at half rail into buffer, inject data at buffer. This dual-band 144/430Mhz magnetic antenna measures 53cm (with magnetic base) and can be used with a walkie-talkie or mobile unit.
The DB25 connector was used in this case because I can unplug the MMDVM and plug in the DMK URIxfor analog all-star. There are two ways to do this, one way is to use a TTL to USB converter and the other way is to solder the wires directly onto the MMDVM board, both work exactly the same just TTL is less permanent. Very well for DMR and DStar - C4FM not tested (IZ5IGB) - NB: a 10uF 16v electrolytic needed in series with the Rx audio line (+ve towards MTR2000) to block DC bias. NOTE: These are NOT hotspot boards, they are different and built to interface with a physical radio.On this web site we will talk about how these different projects are being pulled together to make them stronger and easier to use. Passion Radio does not provide programming support, you must contact the administrator of the network used in the event of a problem with connections to their network.
Pick a 2-meter or 70cm simplex frequency to communicate with your hotspot—70cm is generally preferred because it’s less crowded. Here I found a guide on using the Nextion Editor software, which I’m sure will be useful for creating my own display interface. This is like the WiFi access point that you may have in your house for Internet access or a repeater that works via an Internet server. I then started looking more into them and thought I would give it a go myself, I mean it looks simple enough, right? Uses Pi-Star digital software, the unit comes with an 8GB TF card, you can go to the PiStar web site, input your SSID and Password, this will create a new config.I decided that I’d like another hotspot to use with D-STAR as there are many reflectors not available through the local D-STAR repeater and I thought it might be interesting to listen to some of them. Now we just need to open a browser and type in your address bar, http://pi-star and it should give you your new Pi-Star dashboard. Use the same script, but have it run after the Pi is completely booted and add a line to restart the MMDVMHost service. Setting the RX offset is a bit more difficult because there isn’t really a way to test that within Pi-Star. Since the release of the MMDVM in early 2016, Johnathan Naylor’s (G4KLX) creation has hit the ground running throughout the ham community.
A connected digital environment allows us to leverage MESH networks like Broadband Ham Net or ARDEDNin events where the internet may not be reliable. The basic Jumbospot (which is actually tiny) has two main components, a Raspberry Pi Zero and an attached MMDVM board known in Pi-speak as a HAT—Hardware Attached on Top. If your looking at the rx offset value dont worry as this will vary between devices as you fine tune the value across different radios. Even the impending arrival of my Xiegu G90 SDR transceiver hasn’t been able to take any excitement away from the flexibility of use and depth of capability DMR offers. The Zumspot has a similar configuration but instead uses a more advanced Raspberry Pi 3 or 4 board and generally has a larger display.I’ve tried the “parrot” channel and then I heard the Italia Channel and I’ve done a radio check with the Canadian channel. DR-1X YAESU Note: As we have test, NOT SUPPORT DR-2X,DR-1XFR, because YAESU have lock "DR-2X,DR-1XFR" and can not set RX 9600bps! The board is a hat so it sits directly on top of the Raspberry Pi and uses the Pi’s GPIO pins to communicate with the Pi-Star Software. I thought this would be a great way to demonstrate a repeater without having to bring in multiple radios, a power supply, the computer, etc. This config will replace your WIFI SSID with my WIFI , you must change your WIFI config , before reboot .
Great Deal
