Dstar won't link properly

Post by KC8UFV »

I seem to be having issues with Dstar not linking properly on a new node I'm setting up. I've got passed it giving OKRO messages in the log, but it's still not passing traffic, and when I link, it's showing strange on the pi-star dashboard, and doesn't show up on the list on the remote reflector. I think the screenshot below is related to the connection not being complete, and no stations passing thru. This is on Pi 3 running Pi-Star, with a Repeater Builder MMDVM board (v3/blue), interfaced with a full duplex repeater. it is decoding and repeating locally.

Tail of the log showing a disconnect and a reconnect

OKRO is connected but 'Read Only' your either not registered for that network or you have an issue with ur registration.

It may even be youve earned urself a block if you have been logged in multiple times on the same reflector. (Multiple hotspots linked, same reflector, same time) Dplus net are rather stringent re. that.

I'm getting OKRW in the logs, though, not OKRO. And the dashboard is showing a second line that doesn't seem like it should be there...

Ok. I took your post above for what it said OKRO. If your seeing OKRW back from ur login you can ignore my message above, as that wont be ur issue.
