Allowing Bookworm OS updates breaks things fairly well, I was wondering if this could be looked at but I appreciate that the devs are busy people.


I can agree with that. The beta image (4.3.0) works pretty well before you do any OS updates. Afterwards, in my case, the hat board I am using no ...

I tried the re-spin, made a fresh SD card. Still will not see the original ZumSpot. Here is the pertinent part of the MMDVM log:

M: 2024-02-17 15:40:19.363 Opening the MMDVM
E: 2024-02-17 15:40:19.363 Cannot get the control attributes for /dev/ttyAMA0

Here's an odd one.... I run my NXDN hotspot on an RPi3B with one of the original ZumSpot boards. When I went to the first beta (4.2.0), I used the board firmware update feature to bump the Zum up to V1.6.1, which worked perfectly. And the hotspot worked well with that beta. But when 4.3.0 came out ...

I was looking at all four of my PiStar hotspots this morning, and noticed at the bottom of each Configuration screen these access controls are now all set to Public , and cannot be changed back to Private . Since I don't have UPnP enabled, no one is getting through my firewall anyway, But I was ...

Both those tips did the trick. Thank you so much.

Address=3102.repeater.net


I don't see 3102.repeater.net in the DMR_Hosts.txt file.

Change it to:

Address=3102.master.brandmeister.network

And then load the ADMIN dashboard. I think a recent change from the IP address to the hostname is what is causing the BM API to not be displayed ...

I've also noticed another thing.


Name=BM_3102


The name you have is not current. It should be listing "BM_3102_United_States". When is the last time you ran an update? Your DMR_Hosts.txt file is outdated, or no longer being updated for some reason.

What version of Pi-star are you on?


4.1 ...

May be unrelated, but here is what I see using DMR Gateway with a very simple "Pass All" set of rules as follows. (I have two DMR radios and don't need complicated re-write rules).

I don't really know much about your network splitting comment, I really do try to keep things reasonably simple.


Yes ...

Then I read about BM protecting themselves from "misconfigured" hot spots by requiring all of them to use the same TX and RX frequencies.


Where did you read this? Do you have a link?

A bit of reading around actually reveals exactly the opposite, BM won't allow duplex hotspots with Tx and Rx ...
