AMBEserver is using the newer AMBE3000 chip from DVSI. When Scott wrote his code the predominant AMBE solutions used older chips (usually USB attached) with a different setup and byte flow to process

Hi, Thank you for your answer. That's what I was fearing... Changing the source may be quite difficult, because source code of some components is not available. I understood that AMBE3000 chip was

The AMBE 3000 chip will process D-STAR AMBE just fine, the protocol for talking to the chip is different.

Thank you, that's clear now. It seems I'll have to code ;-)

Hi, I have a PIDV that I try to connect as an USB dongle. Did anyone be successfull making it work ? Which pins of the PIDV must I use ? I have some converters which I can probably use, FTDI

Jean Marc -- why not just create an ambeserver and access it over the UDP/IP network? The schematic is here http://nwdigitalradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/DV3000DS.pdf The required pins are in

Hi John, thanks. I aleady did it and that works very well. But I need to convert it to a "USB dongle" in order to connect it to a CBRIDGE, which accept only dongles. The converted PIDV (either with

Hi Tom, Did you succed in connecting the PIDV as an USB dongle ? I tried myself but it doesn't work. I made several tries with a cheap UART/USB FDTI converter, also with a Buspirate (UART,SPI). 73

Sorry a tipo in my previous post . Of course the CB CAN'T be suspected. CB works very well with dongles.

The PiDV, is strapped at 230kb, you can change it by cutting a trace and adding jumpers at A-5 in the schematic. -- John D. Hays K7VE PO Box 1223, Edmonds, WA 98020-1223

John, Thanks a lot.It works now. My PIDV is well reconized by the cbridge. Thanks again 73 QRO de Jean-Marc - F1SCA

Hi, Yes, I heard about DMRGateway. DMR will be the next step. But for now, we have enough to do here with D-Star, HI :-) I was looking about an existing solution for a quick

Hello, I am using a AMBE 3000 board on a raspberry pi 3 and having issues getting timercontrol to work on it. I was wondering if there is a fix for this. I receive this error. Fatal Error:

Hi all, I try to get DV3000u stick working using the manual ans some sample source code from http://www.dvsinc.com/manuals/AMBE-3000_manual.pdf to it. Almost everything is working well like getting

yes John, analyzing this code for weeks and try to access the stick with exactly this pattern. Encoding audio is working, decoding not. From 1000 sample channel frames only one will be decoded. The

Keep your sample buffer small, remembering that on air protocols are usually 20-30ms per sample. You might drop G4KLX a note, since I haven't coded encode/decode. -- John D. Hays K7VE PO Box 1223,

I have passed my NW digital Thumbdv dongle on to an amateur in Wales and he is having real problems with installation with windows 10 I have only used it with a mac and buster plus an earlier version
