Thanks so much to Mr. Ossi for helping me troubleshoot and get this far. ?I started having all sorts of issues while troubleshooting, to include the Pi not recognizing the SignaLink anymore. ?I burned a new image on a new SD card, installed RC5 last night, and I'm back to basics.
I am able to get FLRig to PTT even in packet mode.
Direwolf starts up, RIGCTL turns green, KISSATCH turns green, and Pat opens up.
When I try to initiate an AX.25 communication, SignaLink PTT will turn red, but does not key the radio.
I'm scratching my head on this one... why would FLRIG PTT key SignaLink and transmitter, but Pat/AX25/Direwolf only key the SignaLink and not the transmitter? ?I am so frustrated because I know the answer has to be something simple that I'm missing. ?I don't think it's a radio configuration issue because I've seen the radio transmit using FLRig. ?And Pat opens up and gives the radio frequency for my-rig, and the AX.25 can key SignaLink... there's just something going on with PTT maybe? ?(Do I have that right? ?SignaLink provides the audio/tones but something else controls the PTT?)
I've been up most of the night trying to figure this out. ?I'd really love to have the packet capability not only because it's a challenge, but also because my ARES group is trying to get everyone onboard with it.
Any suggestions?
