CAN-TRBO not showing in DMR Master dropdown

Post by K1RDD »

Tried rebooting and updating the zumspot and CAN-TRBO is not in the dropdown. Any ideas/suggestions?

This has been an on-going problem with the updates to DMR_Hosts files.
May have to create a local version in root.
The Aug-16 version is still bad.

If you're like me and use DMR+_IPSC2-CAN-TRBO server a lot then it's worth creating a static entry for it.
The file /root/DMR_Hosts.txt is already in Pi-Star so you just need to add this server to it.
SSH in, rpi-rw, then "sudo pico /root/DMR_Hosts.txt".
You can either manually type in the info or Right-click and select Paste from Browser and copy this text into the box.
Be sure to go back and edit the line so that it has TABs instead of spaces.
After Update the server will load it but sometimes at the end of the list, but at least it will always be there.

Can this be done via the "expert" option on the configuration page in place of this? If so, how would it look? I'm not a software person (for the last 20 years anyway!)

CAN-TRBO is not the only one dissapeared...

I also miss:
DMR+_IPSC2-Catalunya 306720 217.61.2.11


I've added it to the CUSTOM area at the end of DMRHots.txt.

It is here:
/usr/local/etc/DMR_Hosts.txt

For those not so pratice to edit files...

Do this way:
Go Config, Expert, SSH.
Enter user & password.
Type: rpi-rw (this provides Read Write permissions)
sudo nano /usr/local/etc/DMR_Hosts.txt (to edit the file. NOTE: Use Upper/Lower case like this Linux is Case Sensitive)
Now use END key on the keyboard to go bottom.
Add whatever you need.
Press CTRL+O (to save the changes)
PressCTRL+X (to exit editor)
Now you can select you server (it will be at the bottom of the list)

You'll have better results if you add your modifications to the DMR_Hosts.txt file (capitalization important) in the root directory; otherwise, the changes you make in /usr/local/etc/DMR_Hosts.txt will get overwritten the next time you run a Pi-Star Update.

For example, using the Nano editor:

Code: Select all

rpi-rw
sudo su -
nano DMR_Hosts.txt
Insert your changes, write your changes, exit the Nano editor, revert to read-only mode (rpi-ro), and then run a Pi-Star Update. The Update will append the modifications to the /usr/local/etc/DMR_Hosts.txt file.

I just checked the latest source:
http://www.pistar.uk/downloads/DMR_Hosts.txt

# Updated 21-Aug-2019
.
.
DMR+_IPSC2-Australia 182702 103.93.139.189 PASSWORD 55555
DMR+_IPSC2-Australia-DMO 177333 103.93.139.188 PASSWORD 55555
DMR+_IPSC2-BRAZIL 393339 201.62.48.62 PASSWORD 55555
DMR+_IPSC2-BULGARIA 143495 77.85.192.92 PASSWORD 55555
DMR+_IPSC2-DK 131399 77.243.52.150 PASSWORD 55555
DMR+_IPSC2-DL-HOTSPO 328782 91.132.144.235 PASSWORD 55555

So a number of IPSC2 servers are still missing, nothing beginning with "C".
Maybe Andy can check his source.

FYI as of today the Pi-Star DMR_Host file does have DMR+_IPSC2-CAN-TRBO back again.
