Well the issue with not finding the whitelist code was a silly error on my part, looking at MMDVM vs MMDVMHost. Should have caught that because I knew I had seen it in there before. But regardless, TG restrictions do not seem to be be working. If I place 'Slot2TGWhiteList=310997' in /etc/mmdvmhost I...

I have seen various references on the web (no idea of their accuracy) concerning whitelisting functions available in mmdvm.ini, but none of these (i.e. 'Slot1TGWhiteList=' for TG, 'Whitelist=' for DMR ID , etc.) seem to work, and indeed if I recursively grep through the MMDVM source I can find nothi...

It does so when the frequency becomes available. Ah, good. That is the functionality that should be available natively in MMDVMHost so that MMDVM-controller (only) systems aren't dependent on the external radio to have that capability, but until that time it is up to the operator to come up with so...

I have my own system running here on a Tait TM8110 and I've setup a 10 minute CW ID and that's done from the radio and not using the ID options in pi-star. How does the radio handle the situation where the transmitter is keyed (meaning ongoing communications are active) in DMR mode when the 10-minu...

I mean repeater owners/operators in general, not just DMR repeaters exclusively. In case I wasn't clear and as indicated in the subject line, the question is concerning MMDVM-based controllers specifically. Or you can just buy an IDer. Nice if it were that easy but no, a simple off-the-shelf IDer w...

Most people that are running a repeater don't just hook up a hotspot to a giant tower/antenna and amplifier, they run specialized repeater controllers that handle all of the IDing and timers on their own. That is not a correct generalization as there are many DMR repeaters using an MMDVM-based boar...

Thanks for the comment and insight. Yes, I realize that the ID is implemented in the MMDVMHost software and 'firmware' was a typo on my part. I researched how ID is done in the MOTOTRBO/commercial world and the system does (or at least can be optioned to) enforce ID at specific intervals, even if a ...

I've seen this topic come up from time to time and the answer seems to be that if CWID is set for (say) 10 minutes and there is DMR traffic being broadcast at the expiration of the 10-minute timer then the CW ID will not be broadcast. This is understandable of course since DMR and a CWID cannot be s...

This works fine, and opposite to start again. Tx is disabled in the stopped condition. #!/bin/bash echo "Stopping Pi-Star Services..." systemctl stop pistar-watchdog.timer systemctl stop pistar-watchdog.service systemctl stop mmdvmhost.timer systemctl stop mmdvmhost.service sleep 3 echo &q...

Ah, I for some reason assumed that pistar-mmdvmcal was entirely an executable, didn't realize that it was started from a script. Looking at the contents of pistar-mmdvmcal I should be able to simply create manual stop and start scripts of my own by controlling the four associated services. Thanks fo...
