configured. In a console run this: ifconfig or ip a show You should see ax0, your first ax.25 channel on the left connector & ax1 the second ax.25 channel on the right connector. You need to set the baud rate you want (9600) in /etc/direwolf.conf under "Channel 1 Properties". Change the MODEM 1200 line to MODEM 9600. By default the left & right channels are always configured so it shouldn't be too difficult to get the second channel going. The hard part is that 9600 baud packet requires you to set deviation more precisely than 1200 baud packet. Having access to a service monitor helps. Let me know how you make out. /Basil J P Watters via Groups.Io <kc9kko=mac.com@groups.io> writes:

Re: Adding a second radio
You can add the second channel in direwolf.conf Similar to udrc-ii https://nw-digital-radio.groups.io/g/udrc/wiki/UDRC%E2%84%A2-and-Direwolf-Packet-Modem#UDRCE284A2-II Use DRAWS™ Manager to set left and right radio channels.

Adding a second radio
J P Watters <kc9kko@...>
Our club has a DRAWS using a single radio that we have configured to run as a digipeater and Winlink X.25 access using telnet to the CMS servers.
The single radio is configured for 1200 baud X.25 Packet Digipeating with access to a Winlink RMS. Our affiliation with the statewide packet network limits that channel to 1200 baud digipeating and Winlink X.25 access. They also exclude APRS data on that channel. We can specify in the Winlink client a VIA to connect to another site with HF access to Winlink. We would like to add a second radio on the second DRAWS interface to support 9600 baud, APRS Data and possibly a FBB instance. Is there information on adding a second interface? ..jpw J P Watters KC9KKO Morris, IL

Thanks a million for the secondary download location, William. Pulled down a copy and just booted the Pi-3 / DRAWS to take a look and make sure I had followed the correct setup sequence. Looks like the DRAWS is recognized & all ready to use. Many thanks to Basil for putting v14 together! Hopefully I won't fall too far behind, but for now I'll continue with the card I have fully setup from the last v13 image. With everything configured & working so perfectly, I just want to keep using it as-is for the moment. I've manually installed or configured the latest versions of everything I use (Direwolf, PAT Winlink for ax25 & ARDOP, JS8Call, WSJTx, and all the other stuff), so I really don't want to re-do everything on a new system at the moment. I like to stay current as much as everyone else, but it's so nice to have a good portable system that "just works". Appreciate everyone's effort on the project! -Scott, K4KDR ===================

As a reminder. Basil puts together these images as a favor and courtesy to the community. NW Digital Radio is not the author of Linux/Raspbian or any of the applications that are preloaded on the beta images. Support for Linux/Raspbian, applications, and configurations belong to the respective authors and their support mechanisms. Some of which are listed via DRAWS™ Manager. If you appreciate Basil's efforts in this regard, please let him know. If you wish to build your own images, you are free to do so, but neither NW Digital Radio nor any of its team members are under any obligation to provide advice or support for making or debugging those images. From http://nwdigitalradio.com/draws/ "What technical support is provided for DRAWS? NW Digital Radio supports the DRAWS HAT hardware and its driver software.

Basil,Not sure why you would want to do this as the provided image has already done the heavy lifting of the install but if you really want to, look at this file for instructions: https://github.com/nwdigitalradio/n7nix/blob/master/docs/CORE_INSTALL.md Building an image will take a few hours to a half a day depending on how many problems you run into. Then a few days of testing to confirm it works the way you think it does. I suspect there is no file n7nix/config/image_install.sh installedCorrect. Read CORE_INSTALL.md link above. Your instructions in the Wiki under "Make your own Raspberry Pi image"Correct. I really do not want to support making your own image. In an earlier post I saw instructions that may be what I am lookingThe CORE_INSTALL.md contains (most of) the instructions I use to build an image. It is not as straight forward as you think. ie. gpsd in the Raspbian repository has problems so I build the latest from source. Also in order to build FLdigi you must increase swap space. There are probably another half dozen or so things that you need to take care of. This is why there is a provided image. Having said all that I understand the reasoning behind making a more minimal image for things that do not require a window manager like an APRS digipeater or an RMS Gateway or if you just want to run HF programs like js8call. If you look at the config/image_install.sh script you should be able to pick the things you want in an image that fits your requirements. If you go this route please know I most likely will not answer your questions but it is a forum so others might. /Basil

Re: image update failure
John Spoonhower
Basil, again thanks for the help. I didn't bother to download the last image. I found the problem is fixed by simply using alsamixer and the settings you mention. The ./btest.sh script runs OK (packets seen on aprs.fi) too on port udrc 1. I still have to fix up the location finding via gps as on the udrc II I have a BU-353S4 usb gps not the draws device. Although gpsd is running just fine, the position data parsing provided in btest.sh is looking for NMEA sentences, while I am fairly certain my device is not NMEA by default. After that I will takeon the APRX install.... 73, John

Basil,
I have a Raspbian Buster RPi 4 running the desired kernel. I want to install whatever is included in the standard DRAWS image over this. I suspect there is no file n7nix/config/image_install.sh installed anywhere on my system. Correct me if I a wrong, please. Your instructions in the Wiki under "Make your own Raspberry Pi image" stop after creating the Raspbian image, much as I have done. There are no instructions on how to proceed after that. In an earlier post I saw instructions that may be what I am looking for, but they were prefaced by "off the top of my head." If those are the instructions, I would prefer that they are a bit more verified and part of the official Wiki instructions before I make trouble. Thanks, Dave

The "DRAWS specific software" are two codec drivers that are in the Linux kernel and an overlay that loads at boot time. The drivers are: snd_soc_tlv320aic32x4_i2c snd_soc_tlv320aic32x4 The overlays are either: udrc.dtbo or draws.dtbo depending on which hat you have installed. While there is some specific configuration required to take advantage of the DRAWS hat gps & A/D converter all the other software provided in the image are scripts that install or configure other software that could be used by any sound card or serial/i2c TNC. Most everything that I do to create an image I do with a script. See n7nix/config/image_install.sh. That's only mostly true because there is always some futzing around with a new Raspbian distribution to get some things to work properly. Perhaps you could explicitly state what you want to do and I can provide some guidance on how to get there. /Basil n7nix David C Jenner - K7DCJ via Groups.Io <djenner8=mac.com@groups.io> writes:

I verified that the following method also works. Copy the following alsa control values from your working image, you can read them by running alsa-show.sh. LO Driver Gain PCM ADC Level Boot your new image and run: cd cd bin sudo su ./setalsa-udrc-din6.sh Now run alsamixer and set LO Driver Gain, PCM & ADC Level. To make things more convenient you could use an editor and set the 3 values in the setalsa-udrc-din6.sh script. They are the first 3 levels set. Verify by running alsa-show.sh one more time. /Basil John Spoonhower <jpspoonhower@gmail.com> writes:

Re: image update failure
First, beacmin.sh was meant to be a minimum beacon command and doesn't
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
have any arguments. That means it only outputs to the first port (udr0) which will not work on the UDRC II unless you edit the AX25PORT variable at the top of the script. The btest.sh script is similar to beacmin.sh but provides command line arguments to select some things. This is the script you should use when testing a UDRC II /btest.sh -h Usage: btest.sh [-P <port>][-s <num>][-p][-m][-v][-h] -P <portname> | --portname <portname> eg. udr0 -s <num> | --sid <num> set sid in callsign, number 0-15 -p | --position send a position beacon -m | --message send a message beacon (default) -v | --verbose display verbose messages -h | --help display this message Second, the APRS symbol is two characters. The first is the symbol table identifier and the second is the symbol code from that table. If you look at the beacon_msg variable in either beacmin.sh or btest.sh you will see that the first character is between ${latdir} & ${lon} and the second character is between ${londir} & $timestamp. For more information look at the APRS manual around page 24. http://www.aprs.org/doc/APRS101.PDF /Basil John Spoonhower <jpspoonhower@gmail.com> writes:

release that image today. The only thing I changed from the scripts was to select discriminator out using the alsa commands. You can do it from the alsamixer gui as well. sset 'IN1_L to Left Mixer Positive Resistor' '10 kOhm' sset 'IN1_R to Right Mixer Positive Resistor' '10 kOhm' Since you have a working configuration why not save it to a file & compare it with the configuration you are using with the new image. ie. save /boot/config.txt, alsa-show, ax25-status -d You could try a transmit test to see what that gives you cd cd n7nix/debug ./btest.sh -P udr1 -p Remember that on a UDRC II the mDin6 connector is port 1 not port 0.

Re: image update failure
I think that your ALSA audio routing is incorrect.The problem is that although all seems normal otherwise, there are noDid you set your alsa settings the same as what you had on your working If you route through ALSA IN1 then you are using DISCOUT or discriminator audio. If you route through ALSA IN2 then you are using AFOUT or compensated audio (preemphasis/deemphasis). Verify how your radio is configured. On my Kenwood if I select DATSPD 9600 I am selecting DISCOUT. This works well for both 1200 & 9600 baud packet. Could you please return the console output of: # Verify driver loaded properly aplay -l # Verify configured for udrc & not draws tail /boot/config.txt # Verify how ALSA is routing audio in alsa-show.sh Thanks, /Basil n7nix

This brings a temperature controlled fan blowing on the Pi's CPU and also is sealed so that hot air can't recirculate back through the fan but must exit through the cooling slots. Again - can be printed for Pi3 or Pi4. Case for Raspberry Pi 3b or Raspberry Pi 4b + NWDR DRAWS hat with GPS port on side. Added PoE Hat as temperature controlled fan - keep Pi cool no matter load SCAD file provided so you can help tune the design STL files for both Raspberry Pi 3b or Raspberry Pi 4b print your choice Has a powerpole power port Nice fit for DRAWS card Rounded corners Machine screws into card spacers hold case together
Hardware 4 M2.5 x 8mm hex socket head machine screws (8mm does not include head) 4 M2.5 x 15mm female to female spacers 4 M2.5 x 8mm male to female spacers 4 M2.5 x 25mm hex socket head machine screws 1 Adafruit ADA2223 - 8.5mm header 40 pin stacking header - also available on Amazon 1 4 Pin Extra Tall Header - https://thepihut.com/products/4-pin-extra-tall-header-push-fit-version-poe-hat
1 Official Raspberry Pi Power over Ethernet card - must be official Raspberry Pi PoE hat Available on Amazon - but PiHut is cheaper and you may want to get 4 pin header from PiHut
Assembly Clean out screw holes - 7/64 or 3mm bit does it nicely Clean out ports Install Powerpole connector - maybe use a bit of thin double stick tape to hold in place Install DRAWS card in lid. It's a close fit but should not be difficult Push M2.5 x 25mm screws into holes Slide baffles into slots - keep fan power notch on right as you look from back to front of lid Install 8mm spaces on screws coming though Draws card Install 40 pin spacer header into PoE Hat with header pushing into header on PoE Hat Install PoE Hat onto Draws card - you may need to work the hat past the baffles Install 15mm spaces onto screws coming through PoE Hat Plug Pi into Poe Hat - make sure it is aligned with the pins go into correct holes Install base Secure with the 4 M2.5 x 8mm screws Tighten every thing up with allen wrench
The PoE Hat will keep a Ri4 down to under 60C under extended load. It easily passes the heating test from the Explaingcomputers YouTube videos testing Raspberry Pi4 B cooling. While the PoE Hat is primarily used as a cooling fat, but a nice side effect is you can power the system from the ethernet port.
