MMDVM Hotspot Board stops audio every day or so.

Post by k1gar »

I have only had my MMDVM Hotspot Board hotspot up and running maybe a week now. It works fine. I have done multiple contacts, I listen to guys talk online all day (I'm laid up after neck surgery), the digital APRS works, etc.

About once a day I notice the screen shows calls coming across and I see the hotspot trigger and see actual callsigns and other data update in the gateway activity but I hear no sound. I triple check the volume and zone and group to make sure nothing changed and everything is set correctly. I watch this go on for several hours, sure it has died and then all the sudden the talking starts up where I hear conversations that match what I see happening again.

Has anybody see this? It seems like maybe the radio or hotspot is sleeping but then again they both respond on their screens when somebody talks. I just don't hear anything.

My radio is sitting on its charger base right beside my couch so it is definitely fully charged.

Ideas or suggestions?

Hi,

Having the same issue. I can key the hotspot but there is no audio. I use DMR a lot and I can see that it connects to the talk group but there is no incoming traffic from the connected talk groups. When I use the Echo "parrott" feature no audio is returned. This just seem to start the last 4 days.
