DV-Rptr1 Raspberry 3B+ Pi-Star 4.1.0

Post by DO1SGL »

I have a DV-Rptr1 here and it once worked with Pi-Star. Now I wanted to use a Raspberry B + and the current PI-Star 4.0 but the DV-Rptr1 does not seem to work or is doing something wrong. Could it be that the DV-Rptr1 only works with a Raspberry 3 B and the PI-Star version 3.4.17 ??????? Can you tell me which controller I have to set to make it work ??? I hope you could help me further. 73 de Stefan, DO1SGL

Setup pistar as a dstarrepeater setup. The dvrptr card won't run as a pistar Mmdvmhsost setup.

Also, don't run the 4.0 install it's now defunct. Install 4.1

Yes I have now installed Pi-Star 4.1.0, when I go to the DStarRepeater where do I have to do the fine adjustment ...?.? Is there a rough direction of how the settings have to be ????? I have unfortunately found nothing on the net where this information is ..

The parameters will be different depending which radio you are using alongside the card.
Rx invert, Tx invert, Rx audio, Tx audio. Will all need adjusting.

Stephan: Were you able to get your DVRPTR working? I have a similar setup (V1 board, RPi 3b, latest version of Pi-Star connected to Kenwood V71), and can receive, but my transmit does not seem to be going out...../gary W0EDN
