Re: 4.2.0 Beta feedback

If u've not updated ur boards f/w yet to 1.6.1 try that as its needed for the newer mmdvmhost were using in these latest pistar releases. you might want to also make changes to the uart speed in the mmdvmhost expert section to see if ur board caters to (uses) the higher speeds. This doesn't work ab...

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

It suggests to me that the 4FSK modulation in the FT-3D is either different between the FM modes which should not be the case, or the digital data stream has a field set to something different and for some reason the LowDeviation setting in Pi-Star matters in interpreting it. The wide/narrow settin...

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

There is definitely some interaction on my FT-3D. Radio FM deviation WIDE, YSF LowDeviation 0 = works. Radio FM deviation NARROW, YSF LowDeviation 0 = NOT working. Radio FM Deviation NARROW, YSF LowDeviation 1 = works. Radio FM deviation WIDE, YSF LowDeviation 1 = NOT working And my BER is in the gr...

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

I now have YSF working again with 4.2.0 beta. The change that fixed it was setting LowDeviation to 1 in the MMDVMHost settings. Mode on my FT-3D is set to DN. I'll go away and research what this does.

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

Thanks Andy - it works for me, however pistar-mmdvmhshatflash-custom has vanished. Can this be restored or is there another way to upload locally-build firmware with the new tool?

Re: M17 mode HAT firmware support

I've managed to build some firmware from a link Andy posted, although it's not resolved my YSF issue. There's also an on-line builder that produces V1.6.0 (but you have to know which switches to turn on!) https://forum.pistar.uk/viewtopic.php?p=24018#p24018 . I just cloned the Github then built it o...

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

Looks like the world of MMDVM_HS firmware has changed a little, it looks like Jonathan has forked Andy's repo to add the lastest patch set. Take a look here: https://github.com/G4KLX/MMDVM_HS For reference this is the other MMDVM_HS repo: https://github.com/juribeparada/MMDVM_HS Pi-Star has not bee...

Re: Future support for STM32F1 boards?

I haven't kept up with the development on Github recently due to inacivity, i just took a look over there earlier when I read comments about updating firmware. I have build it from source when I had it running on the Arduino Due platform. I can appreciate that the MMDVM developers want to support ne...

Re: M17 mode HAT firmware support

I've just seen your post Brian after posing a similar question. What modems do you have, I'm using the MMDVM_HS_Dual_Hat clones, currently with v1.5.2 and all with STM32F10*. I agree with the 2W upgrades, it makes a noticeable difference over the W when using the dashboard interface. the 3A is also ...
