Pi star as tier 1 repeater with 2 opengd77

Hello all,
I was basically wondering if there are news about an already seen topic (https://forum.pistar.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2191).

Since 4 years have passed, I ask if there is any possibility to use 2 opengd77 radio to work as tier one repeater connecting both of them to the pi-star.

Thanks!

Re: Voice injection over the air

Well,
I'll try to reduce the size of the question :)

Is it possibile to do the same in DMR? ...

Voice injection over the air

Hello,

I've got a hotspot made with OpenGD77 + external antenna.
Is there a way with pi-star (without allstarlink and reflectors) to inject an mp3/ogg/wav/whatever file in the air (DMR)?
I'd like to broadcast an announce, something like
"This is IZ5WGA HotSpot - Frequency XXX.XXX, Color Code X ...

GPS send doesn't seem to work

Greetings,

I connected my pi-star after some months of inactivity and updated to latest version. I use opengd 77 modem.
When I try to send APRS data trough DMR (pistar is connected to BM, I use TG 222999 since I'm Italian) , my aprs position doesn't show up in aprs.fi.
On the dashboard, column "SRC ...

Re: Pistar linking DMR

In the end I just created an hblink server and both hotspots connect to the same master. Far people use the simplex with baofeng (it's got about a 10 km city area coverage ) while at home I use the duplex mmdvm one :)

Re: Announces in dmr

As of now, I supplied with the scheme
Allstar <--> HBLink <--> hotspot

A cron in allstar node transmits to hblink the announce, and from there it goes on air through the pistars :)
