Hello Community. So as to check if I understand correctly, it is possible to insert the ThumbDV on a USB port on my Raspberry Pi 3 that has a DVMega installed. System is Compass Linux. So I may instal

Hi John. Enjoying the ThumbDV here. It got my attention on the possibility to use it from home. So on my gateway I install AMBE server as per wiki and leave the ThumbDV inserted on a USB Port, configu

OK John, I will install and run and report back. Thank you.

After apt-get update & apt-get upgrade, it encoutered 2 errors, bluez and pi-bluetooth. I did install ambeserver, and got this: Selecting previously unselected package ambeserver. (Reading database ..

Also to be noted is that now the DVMega is not working either. I did not run apt-get upgrade when I unpacked the image before trying out the AMBE Server project.Will stop here for now, time to go to b

I went ahead and reinstalled the image, and started from 0. The issue with the DVMega was, that when I did apt-get upgrade, the /boot/cmdline.txt got replaced, and so it called for a fsk repair item t

I went ahead and installed compass lite on a separate Rpi3, insterted the ThumbDV and installed ambeserver, and: pi@TG9AOR:~ $ sudo systemctl status ambeserver@... -l ● ambeserver@ttyUSB0.

John! It worked! Thank you so much! I did have to set the Local IP address on my DummyRepeater to 0.0.0.0 in order for it to work, just setting the HB IP to 0.0.0.0 and leaving the laptop´s IP to 127.

Dear Nicolas F8FKD: I did change it, and also changed the Dummy Repeater´s local IP Address to 0.0.0.0, it worked when I did those changes. Thanks for your information. TG9AOR

As an update, I deleted and reentered my callsign data from all fields in Dummy Repeater and now it checks out OK on the Gateway: M: 2017-02-10 00:11:13: GATEWAY: OE9PKV G 194.208.145.43 M: 2017-02-10

Hello to all. I added the CompassLinux repository(alder main) to my pi, installed ambeserver and it worked as expected when accesed from wherever, very nice to operate like this. I also have on this p

OK Steve, I will do this. I will start over because I have installed and auto removed the ambeserver a couple of times now, and so in order to go on a clean sheet I will reinstall, and will keep this

Thank you John, will do. BTW is the Raspberry Pi3 a good hardware solution for running ambed? Y plan to use two transcoding channels with ThumbDVs. Thank you and 73 TG9AOR

Thanks!

I reinstalled everything, but I am at the same spot. I even reconnected the ThumbDV after stopping the ambeserver. Output of python ambesocketest.py below pi@raspberrypi:~/Downloads/NWDigitalRadio $ p

After I ran the top command, I noticed that opendv was running ambeserver, So I did a check on USB1: pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB1 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 1 Sep 29 23:30 /dev/ttyUSB1 So

Hello Frank. This guide by IZ7AUH which he shared with me via Yahoo! Group xlxd-star digest some time ago pointed to the items needed to be renamed within the FT_Prog in order for the ThumbDV to be re

What is the tip polarity for the power supply? Is it better to operate at 12V or 9V? Is there a difference? 73 de TG9AOR

Steve! Many thanks, same here to you. Happy 4th!!!

Do I need to modify the USB descriptor on my ThumbDV to use it as originally sold to me instead of being used for the ambed program for xlxd? If so, what is the original value I need to put into USB S
