Hi, 

looks like a corrupt JSON file upon auto download. Let’s see the output from your log file on that time stamp, just the snippet from the start of the error to the end will do.

 You will need to probably delete the JSON files that are automatically downloaded. These are “peer_ids.json”, “subscriber_ids.json”,” etc etc. Normally these are pulled from radioID when TRY_DOWNLOAD: True is enabled in hblink.cfg. Obviously by the looks of it one of these has failed or part downloaded and corrupted one of them. HBLink has failed to read this and thrown a decode error.. also make sure your “talkgroup_ids.json” has been edited with the correct syntax for JSON format. 

Try deleting “peer_ids.json” & “subscriber_ids.json” and restarting the service!
