Ron, Buster does support XRF and should support XLX reflectors, since they use the same protocol. (i am currently connected to XRF012-A) The problem is more likely that Buster can't resolve the IP add

Ryan, Thank you for the recommendation on which XLXd reflector source tree to us, I found a bunch of them on GitHub and it isn't clear which is the 'right' one. I personally was going to run this on a

John, I came up with better Google search terms and found this nice description. https://ww8tf.club/building-a-transcoding-xlxd-pi/ I haven't tried it yet, but a quick scan suggests it will lead me in

Marco, As a datapoint, I just checked my Pi / ThumbDV at home (running Compass), it has been running for 48 days now. The last time it was rebooted was due to me having to move it physically. AMBEServ

Gwen, I'm glad you got it working, but I can't take any credit for writing the instructions, I just knew they had worked for me. 73, Kenny, KU7M

I am pretty sure the ThumbDV I am using is of the second generation, so it doesn't need to be forced to the 460800 baud rate. I had forgot about that requirement for some people, but as you said, it c

Gwen, You shouldn't need any other packages or applications (suites), if you have successfully built AMBEserver from the source. I couldn't find default Github repo, but this one has what I remember a

There really isn't any configuration files, you just need to start it from the command line. This is the command I use to start it on my server at home, with a ThumbDV. I don't have the PiDV running a
