Re: Time/ID cron command will not execute
To follow up on this, you¡¯re trying to execute 2 commands with any separator. You want
00 0-23 (source /usr/local/etc/allstar.env ; /usr/bin/nice -19 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/sbin/say24time.pl L3K5V5 > /dev/null ; $HOME/speaktext.sh "VE3JMR" $NODE1 >
/dev/null)
Or?
00 0-23 (source /usr/local/etc/allstar.env ; /usr/bin/nice -19 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/sbin/say24time.pl L3K5V5 > /dev/null && $HOME/speaktext.sh
"VE3JMR" $NODE1 > /dev/null)
A couple comments:
- The first version will always execute both commands
- The second will only execute speaktext.sh?in the case that
say24time executes correctly.?
- I¡¯m unsure offhand where speaktext.sh lives, and I¡¯ve assumed it lives in the home directory. You can¡¯t use immediate paths (./) in a cron script unless you move there as part of the
cronjob.?
Hope that helps!

Steve,
I think your message above (#1823) may help me solve an issue!? I currently have Hamvoip running on a Raspi 3b and DVSwitch running on a 3b+.? Hamvoip is set up to access Echolink, and all is accessible to my Yaesu FT-65 analog transceiver and my Androld network radios, and can be contolled through Supermon.? USRP is being used to facilitate access by DVSM to the Shari node.? All works fine.
I have been exploring options to access DMR from my analog transceiver using Analog_Bridge.? The issue is that USRP is already being used to allow my network radios to access the node.? Options considered include setting up another node and linking them, but that would make access to Echolink a bit clumsy.? Also wondered if I could set up another stanza [USRP2] to point to the DVSwitch server?
At the end of this adventure, I would like to be able to access Allstar, Echolink and DMR with both my handheld analog radio and by Android devices using Supermon, or DVSM functionality to control the Android devices, and DTMF macros to control the node from the analog radio. ?
Suggestions on how to set this up?? I have an additional Raspi 3b available if needed, and would prefer to keep nodes and servers on separate hardware to keep maintenance simpler.
Thanks for your ideas!
Regards,
Doug VE3XDB
Hope it's clear what I am trying to do, a?

The SHARI PiHats use the UART serial port of the Raspberry Pi to program the SA818.? Changes are required to /boot/config.txt and /boot/cmdline.txt in order to use the UART for this purpose.? The procedure is applicable to both the Pi3 and Pi4.
?
The latest HamVOIP image () has all of the changes required as well as the latest version of SA818-prog.

I am working?throught?the instructions to configure my SHARI Pi Hat (SHARI PiHat Allstar Node Setup Procedure-Version 1.04.pdf) and I've come to some confusion in the "
Configuring the SHARI PiHat Serial Port" section.? First the section repeatedly references the Pi4, but I am working with?an old Pi3.? Does this section apply to me?
Also, the first paragraph in this section says that the SA818-prog file is "not part of the HamVOIP image" and must be downloaded and copied over.? However, a note half way down the page says "Also, the SA818-prog program should already be installed in your image as it is included in the HamVOIP updates."? Do I need to install this file or not?

Re: Set Up Mobile Operation Using Phone WiFi Hotspot
Its only auto-hotspot when its powered an not connected.? Security on a momentary hotspot is the least of my worries.?

My Pi-Star has that, and I was able to access it without a password.
I turned off the WiFi when it was still on PS. The 3B+ is now SHARI.
If an autospot is enabled, you have a serious security hole.

Re: Set Up Mobile Operation Using Phone WiFi Hotspot
Yeah, I'd definitely love to see auto? hotspot mode on HamVoIP
such that you can still access your node to make changes if you
are not near an available network, have no access to Ethernet (Pi
Zero 2 W, anyone?) and some other situations.
This being said, at least wpa_supplicant supports priority. The
highest numbered priority access point will be tried first, going
down the line. I have a portable node set up to prefer my hotspot
over my home internet connection even if both are available. This
way, I can easily switch to mobile data if my internet goes down
without having to take my home wifi offline.

Re: Set Up Mobile Operation Using Phone WiFi Hotspot
Michael, N5ZR, Why would you push anything on someone who volunteers their own time and gives you something that you can download for free? ? Pretty rude if you ask me. ? It's not that hard to put multiple WIFI SSIDs in the WPA Supplicant file. ? Have one in there for my home and the other for my mobile. ? Works great. ??

Re: Set Up Mobile Operation Using Phone WiFi Hotspot
Easy. Setup your phones hotspot using the same SSID and key as your home wifi.
When you turn it on away from home your shari will not know the difference.
The hotspotted phone looks like your home wifi.

Re: shari node all setup BUT not hearing anything else
A good node to squat on and squawk on is Blind Hams ALLSTAR node #506315.. there are other nodes just change the last number, but 5 in Dallas has the lowest latency. Plenty of nets, ? Check-ins from all over the world. You do not need to be blind to participate. but you will learn a lot about audio quality, those guys have lab quality hearing.

Look up some nodes and connect to them.? Connect to a repeater or a hub just about anywhere.
