AllStar and DummyRepeater
I'm looking to build a a gateway between AllStar and D-STAR, and I've
seen references to using DummyRepeater and IRCDDBGateway, instead of Analog_Bridge. This has the advantage for me of being able to repurpose a blue DV Dongle to do the DSAMBE conversion, saving a bit of money and postage time (postage is quite slow these days) I am aware there is a modification for DummyRepeater that allows it to use the USRP interface, making it a perfect fit for AllStar, and I have the AllStar side configured. However, from there, documentation seems to be lacking, and I couldn't find the patch (found a dead Guthub link). Anyone have any more info? -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com

Sorry, I did not see this when you posted. I have restored my old copy of the info on using DummyRepeater. A you know, we no longer use this method to connect AllStar to D-Star. The files are at <https://github.com/N4IRS/DummyRepeater> 73, Steve N4IRS

Thanks. Well, the newer methods seem to require a ThumbDV or similar,

which I don't have, meaning additional cost, and worse still these days, lengthy mail order delays, with the global postal system affected by COVID-19. But I do have a blue DV Dongle, which I'm hoping to repurpose for this job, hence looking at DummyRepeater. Of course, if there's other ways to make use of the DV Dongle as part of a gateway, I'm open to those as well. It's likely I've missed some information somewhere.

I downloaded the OpenDV code, so all is good, other than needing to spend time setting it up. -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com

Any activity on the AllStar side results in DummyRepeater going into transmit. Waiting on my MMDVM board to access the system from the D-STAR side, and give my old IC-91AD a run. :) -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com
