Re: YSF2DMR Broken ???

I agree that there are problems with 4.x but I cannot get YSF to run reliably at all in 3.4.17 let alone YSF2DMR - I always get not linked or, if a link ever appears, it falls over within a short time. Essentially my two hot-spots running pi-star don't work on YSF...:-( What settings are you using u...

Re: YSF Rooms Disconnecting On Dashboard

I have an MMDVM modem board on an RPi Zero-W and YSF is effectively useless - no matter what home node is set up (no, I have not tried them all but I have tried a previously used set of YSF and FCS nodes) I get "not linked" most of the time. D-Star is not perfect either because it takes ag...

Re: Pi-Star 4.1.0-RC7 - NTP error...

I cannot set the clock - the date command fails and says that it cannot (I say will not) update the clock - it is 2 days out.

Re: Pi-Star 4.1.0-RC7 - NTP error...

Further to my last. the Pi thinks that ntp is installed so I have removed it with the intention of re-installing but then it says again "no release candidate" so I cannot even reinstall ntp! sntp is installed still. There is no ntpdate function:-(

Re: Pi-Star 4.1.0-RC7 - NTP error...

Toshen,

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately:

sudo: ntpdate: command not found

I've tried installing but "no candidate for ntpdate".

Sad.

I didn't understand how it can have found the date that it has - then I realised that the release was dated 19th December.

Pi-Star 4.1.0-RC7 - NTP error...

Folks, I have just built a Pi-Star JumboSpot hotspot using a Raspberry Pi Zero W and loaded 4.1.0-RC7. Everything is working ok save that the date and time are WRONG. Yesterday evening (20:00 UK time) it thought that it was 05:00 on 20.12.19 (it was 22.12.19) and this morning it thinks that it is ar...

Re: D-Star reflector link drops out after a few seconds...

Thanks for the input. The problem exists in three locations: Home - where there is a Mikrotik router and a wireless ISP (20Mbit/s down, 1.2Mbit/s up), alternative location (London) where we have a standard consumer (not BT) router and ADSL (14Mbit/s down, 1.5Mbit/s up); and our boat where we have a ...

Re: Turn off read-only fiile system??

Thanks for the input - based on what I have read there is no need to consider the risk issue - its just too complicated for my simple purpose, especially if I later have to update to a new version. Having read that post I am minded to put in a USB drive for the boinc client to use. It can do what it...
