My rig won't work with FLrig
|
The IC 2100, if I'm not mistaken, has a 3.5 plug for programming. I never thought of using that plug for FLrig. If the radio vfo can be used, one would have to make a patch cable to run the data on the sleeve to tip. We had to do this for IC 746 way back when. 73 Don Poaps New Westminster, BC VA7DGP DATA VA7QU ? VOICE Winlink:?va7dgp@... Subject://wl2k ? ? ? ? ?

I bring up PAT, winlink packet modem, and it prompts me to setup FLrig. You showed a radio FT-2890 using a signal link in the beginning of your video. That works off of VOX.? |
开云体育Hey Don, ? This is what I’m working with.? Got a Digirig Mobile interface box and USB A to C cord.? ? ? I need to reach out to Craiger KM6LYW and see how he rigged up the Winlink Server for it as it does it all.? I’m think linBPQ will be more robust for my Winlink SysOp requirements.? ? Thanks, ?

Ok. You're using the Mic and Speaker. You have some audio adjusting to do. Playback is TX Run squelch open. Adjust the playback so it's not overdriving the radio.? Have you loaded Direwolf?? PTT=CM108 There's another setting in Direwolf that lets Flrig PTT the radio using the digirig?to PTT the radio. This is done by my 75 year old brian. Other may have the info at hand. 73 Don Poaps New Westminster, BC VA7DGP DATA VA7QU ? VOICE Winlink:?va7dgp@... Subject://wl2k ? ? ? ? ?

开云体育Ya, I know Craiger KM6LYW is running direwolf in the background of his digipi build.? Not sure if it’s using hamlib for the PTT? ? Denis with Digirig mentioned that the Digirig Mobile (newest version) has the upgraded CM108 chipset (will work on pretty much any radio). ? Jeremy KM6QAQ ? ?

Linbpq has bpq.cfg file. This is where you add your winlink info and your radio info. When I ran BPQ, soundcards like Signalink were just coming out. I ran hardware tnc.? 73 Don Poaps New Westminster, BC VA7DGP DATA VA7QU ? VOICE Winlink:?va7dgp@... Subject://wl2k ? ? ? ? ?

开云体育Nice, wish I had the experience with the hardware TNCs – very cool!? Closest I ever got was a 14.4 baud modem on my IBM compatible.? ? I’ve set up the bpq.cfg file per KM4ACK’s video – “How to set up a Winlink Gateway on a Pi.”? I’m getting a Telnet error.? Not sure what port it should be set on.? He doesn’t mention it in the video and it auto populates.? I think it might be conflicting with port setting in PAT config settings? ? I just set up Winlink Packet, packet settings as I’m trying to expand my capabilities as a Winlink SysOp.? I chose Direwolf as my software TNC.? Would you happen to know the Direwolf settings for a IC-2100 type radio using a Digirig?? Radio goes straight into transmit but won’t unkey.? So something is triggering PTT within Direwolf.? I just don’t have the settings correct. ? Thanks, ? KM6QAQ 73 ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Don Poaps via groups.io

Hey Jeremy, I used the signalink with the 2980. The signalink has VOX built in and handles the PTT in my setup. I don't necessarily recommend the signalink but it was what I had on hand when I built mine. You should be able to use the digirig and define the PTT in the direwolf.conf file for packet work. This would skip rigctl all together. The PTT line in direwolf would be:
PTT /dev/ttyUSB? RTS
?
The "?" will be the number assigned to your digirig. To find exactly where the digirig attached, run:
ls -l /dev/serial/by-id
?
The best place for config help with the setup is the BPQ forum. /g/bpq32/topics Those guys are the masters of the BPQ config file. I only know enough to be dangerous :-)

开云体育Thanks for your response Jason.? I was informed by Denis at Digirig that I can leave the rig open on FLrig and select BOTH under Generic PTT.? I need to fire up the Pi and give it a try.? ? Regarding your setup.? Hope do you change the FLrig prompt with PAT winlink to not use FLrig? ? Thanks, ? Jeremy Pierce KM6QAQ 73 ?
