MMDVM Host with FM Support

Post by DL1FLW »

Hello Andy, i have a Multimode repeater running with Pi-Star and a V3 (Blue Board) from Repeater Builder.

Does the current MMDVM Host from Pi-Star have the FM function ? Thanks for all your efforts & 73s !

I'm sure Andy will reply at some point, when he sees this. until he does...

No. the current pistar release doesn't support FM repeater mode.

Well that was true - the more accurate answer is that it does now have the FM Support baked in, just there is no config for it in the /etc/mmdvmhost file at the moment, however I will have the config page add that soon.

Please keep in mind that MMDVM_HS / Hotspots / Hats with on-board radio do NOT support FM mode capability, so this feature set is limited to full repeaters at this time.

Hi,
Here in Buenos Aires we have the same configuration as DL1FLW.
And has the "Cindirella magic" because it is alive at night and stops working after midnight.

Andy, will be a cron or something to track that modifies the mmdvmhost ?

Thanks
