Unable to Tx to hotspot (though hat recognizes the attempt)
Posted: Wed Mar 22, 2023 8:36 pm
Greetings. I've put together a Pi-Star hotspot with an MMDVM HS_Dual v1.3 clone. I've got it mostly up and running, but I think I'm missing something.
I have the unit set to DMR, connecting to BrandMeister Master 3103. The unit definitely transmits; I receive the BM TG I've assigned to TS2 without incident; the transmitting operator's information shows up on the screen and everything. Whenever I transmit with my BTech DMR-6X2 Pro, however, the PTT and DMR lights come on, and I get "Downlink Activate received from W8ZII" in the logs, but nothing seems to go out. Programmed TGs, Parrot, TG9...no response. Local RF activity remains blank, as well. I've used mmdvmcal to verify it's working hardware wise, and it fully recognizes when I transmit (using talkaround mode, of course); average BER is less than 1%.
Ideas, please?
