Re: How to change drive level in ARDOPC #linux #pat-mail #73linux #ardop #evolve

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Thanks Joel. ?I will try that. ?I was hoping to find the drivelevel that is built into ARDOP. ?In the normal version, it is defaulted at 90. ?I normally run it between 47 to 53 to get ALC about 1 tick on the meter.

I did install the PulseAudio volume manager...

sudo apt install pavucontrol

I can adjust both the input and output with that. I had to take mine way down to about 13% for about 1/3 deflection on the IC-705's ALC meter which will give you clean output and not overdrive.

Re: ARDOP Transmit Hang Time

Are you using the latest ardopc from John's site?

I sent him this patch for that, which I think he incorporated.? It chops off the dead air
at the end of a transmission and increases the polling resolution.

Re: How to change drive level in ARDOPC #linux #pat-mail #73linux #ardop #evolve

 

I use alsamixer to control my usb in/out audio levels.? ?From a terminal window enter alsamixer and it will open the utility.? F6 allows you identify the available audio devices.? ?I am using a Digirig audio interface but I have also used a PAUL usb audio interface and I assume you can use it usb audio built into the 705.? I believe some prefer to us Pulse audio controls.

hello all. is there a way to do a total uninstall of 73Linux and start all over without having to wipe the entire sd card? after many months of trials, reading, watching videos,,, the PAT app just does not work for me.

When I launch ARDOP from Pat-Menu using the IC-705, I¡¯m over driving the ALC to about 10. ?Since ARDOP does not install, I¡¯m unable to find where I can adjust the drive level to reduce my ALC. ?Any suggestion on where the configuration file might be located to change this or another method to accomplish this?

Re: "ARDOP Modem FAILED to Start" Error Linux Mint 21.3 (x64)

 

Yeah... something's not geehawing in my setup. I have restored from a very early backup after configuring my system and, after deleting the 73Linux folder, have re-run the 73Linux script. I don't select much - ARDOP, JS8Call, Pat, and PatMenu. All of those installed except Pat. I figured this out when running pat configure and I was told by the system that there was no such command as "pat." Well, that got me thinking...

When I ran the 73Linux script this past weekend, I ran into the same issue - Pat wouldn't install on the first try (yep, I rebooted). It did on the second try. It did ask me for my grid square and Winlink password both times (and the sudo password each time as well). I just re-ran the 73Linux script and only installed Pat and then rebooted. This time, Pat did install but Pat Menu still will not start the ARDOP modem. It will start the web service but I still have to start ARDOP manually.

I'm inclined to believe this has something to do with Mint 21.3.

My RPi 5 / 8GB arrived today so I'll be playing with that for a few days and getting it setup.

Joel - W4JBB


Re: MX Linux 23.1 respin and 73 Linux, good to go on my rpi 4!

 

Mike, I thought I would give MX Linux a try on my 8G PI5. Install went ok. Then tried 73 Linux. I installed a few programs some loaded ok. I installed Aprsis32. I then tried to add it to the HamRadio menu using the Menu Editor. After that the HamRadio folder in the Menu was not there. I then used the Menu Editor to add the HamRadio folder, then added the Ham Programs under HamRadio. I could not get VARA to install, but everything else I tried worked. MX LINUX is an easy version to work with.

I can confirm that in that my case on the Evolve III Maestro 11G laptop. ?That installing LinuxMint 21.0 Vanessa and then 73Linux. ?Will get everything working. ?Then I ran mintupgrade to 21.3 Virginia and the configuration stuck and ARDOP and AX.25 will run. ?Not sure it¡¯s best approach, but so far, I¡¯m not seeing any issues.

Kelly, CM108...I have read that as a packet to install for direwolf.? But I think it should come with direwolf.? I have a fresh install of bookworm 64 and Direwolf.? Right now searching for install instructions for Xastir and bookworm..? Most info is old and for older pi linux versions.? Hopefully when I plug in my Signalink this direwolf? will read it and give me a usable tnc/tty0 .I will have to set up direwolf.conf.? Then I can install Xastir and set it up and get going.??

This is definitely tougher than my IC-718/FLDIGI and FT857D/WSJT-X installs with the Signalink.

Re: Patreon:Re: [KM4ACK-Pi] PAT Menu fails treying to open localhost or 127.0.0.1

 

Your pat server (pat service) isn't running in the background like it should be. What happens if you start pat from the command line with:
pat http

I'll guess it produces errors and won't start. This typically indicates an error in your pat config file. If this is the case, try Pat Menu->Manage Pat Winlink->Repair Pat Config
