Hello Scott,
We all started from zero so if you stick to it, I'm sure you'll get it. I guess the best place I can recommend to get started is here:

Re: Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
Depending on what you are trying to do. HamVoIP may be easier to deal with. I looked at ASL (Allstar Link) a while back and if I remember correctly, it won't run on the 64-bit OS.

Re: Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
David - Thanks - I think the fob is working reliably now. Now, as to ASL software... I have no idea where to go next. I am truly a newbie when it comes to RPi, linux, Allstar - all new to me. My

Re: Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
Hello Scott,
How old is this FOB? If it's pretty new, you might have a problem. There are a lot of these units that are very poorly made and if your USB contacts are getting a lot of oxidation now,

David - Thank you for the quick response and info about dmesg. I know almost nothing about Linux commands so every little bit helps. I ended up simply cleaning the usb fob contacts with a pencil

Re: Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
Solved my problem. I guess I just didn't have a good connection between the fob USB contacts and the Pi. Cleaned them up and now see both mic & speaker channels.

Re: Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
Hello Scott,
If you open up a terminal window your Raspberry Pi and run the "dmesg" command, you'll see all kinds of kernel logging stuff. Now connect your CM108 sound device and run "dmesg" again.

Newbie Question on CM108 Audio Fob for Allstar Node
I am new to the RPi world and have what's probably a "dumb" question. I am not a software guy so please go easy on me. My ultimate goal is to build an Allstar link using a BF-888S and CM108 audio

Re: PiGate with Signalink or DRA
Please also recall I do not have the v2.2 doc, I’m working with the v2.1 doc. If the v2.2 doc talks specifically about the SignaLink, I would appreciate having access to a copy.
Thank you,
Asa

Re: PiGate with Signalink or DRA
I started with an unaltered image and SignaLink did not work. Not entirely true because I did have to make a mod for gps. But that was it. SignaLink did not work for me out of the box. I had to

Not sure why you are making so many changes on the PiGate.? It worked with a SignaLink and Direwolf in the standard form.? You're now getting into the area where I can't help because I don't

Re: PiGate with Signalink or DRA
Update.
Today I hooked up the SignaLink to my Winlink station and it worked fine. I then reattached it to the PiGate. It seemed to work fine but had an error.

Re: PiGate on Raspberry Pi 4?
Hey Mark,
It should be worth noting that Debian 12 (Bookworm) was released on June 10, 2023 and it's only a matter of a few months of when a new version of Raspberry Pi OS will be released taking on
