Pulled the hot spots out and dusted them off

Post by ae4ml »

Getting ready for some travel here soon. I pulled the primary out and fired it up. immediately it stated I needed updates. I expected that and ran the updates. I pulled out my portable to check it out and I can't bring it up. I verified frequency on the portable and the hotspot. This was with P25. I grabbed my DMR and it did the same thing. I can hear traffic on P25 but I can't transmit to the hotspot. Yes the portable reaches a local repeater.
I see Im now on v4.15.
I started my backup and ignored the need updates for the moment and it worked. I did the updates and now I'm dead in the water with nothing working. I have swapped out mmdvm boards. swapped out Pi's even burned new microSD's

Update, Still no luck bringing the hotspot back.

I ran pistar-mmdvmcal and logged the debug messages. my P25 BER is <1% but I still don't show on the dashboard nor have I made any contacts.

original code was 3.4 and when that failed to work I built a fresh install of 4.1 . I dont use the backups. If updates fail then I prefer fresh clean installs
