AllStar TX Issue

N1FTE

Greetings,

When trying to TX to an AllStar node while connected using the IAX2/AllStarLink connector on the M1KE in AllStarLink mode, about 50 percent of the time when I press the PTT button, the unit will TX for about a second then stop without releasing the PTT button. A subsequent rekey usually holds TX and I can talk without issue.

Here is what appears in the console when TX drops:
19:26:31 iax2-mic: tx start, cid: a21cb1bbc0c4e876
19:26:31 iax2-call: tx end

Here is what a normal PTT looks like:
19:27:04 iax2-mic: tx start, cid: e50b7fb04adade03
19:27:08 mic: ptt off
19:27:08 iax2-call: tx end

This only seems to be an issue when using AllStar. None of the other connectors have this issue. Firmware used is V26.

Do you have this issue if you use a different server?
Do you have this issue when toggling PTT with the ptt command over the console on the Status page?

Norbert,

You can disregard. After further testing, the issue was found to be commented out CWID fields and courtesy tone fields in the node stanza of rpt.conf on the connected node.

Once the fields were reenabled and properly configured for desired operation, the M1KE started working properly.
