Erwin OE1EKG
Hello on the forum,
after few month I found time to play again with the DRAWS and want to finish my started installation. First of all I want to do an update -but this failed cause of PAT and WSJTX installation? So what can I do to overcome this? 73 de Erwin, OE1EKG Here the code what I did: pi@draws:~ $ apt-mark showhold
libraspberrypi-bin
libraspberrypi-dev
libraspberrypi-doc
libraspberrypi0
raspberrypi-bootloader
raspberrypi-kernel
raspberrypi-kernel-headers
pi@draws:~ $ ## Update NWDR scripts
pi@draws:~ $ cd
pi@draws:~ $ cd n7nix
pi@draws:~/n7nix $ git pull

Re: Anyone have the DRAWS functional on Ubuntu for RPi 20 or 21?

Basil,

Understood. I may give it a go to see if the card "lights up" after installing the usual audio suspects. My uses are VERY specific to one application of my own creation (hence the need for recent Qt5 libraries). I have an SD card with Ubuntu server on it now. It'll be a matter of moving the DRAWS over and testing it out on the RPi4. Thanks for the clarification! Mitch

Re: Anyone have the DRAWS functional on Ubuntu for RPi 20 or 21?
If Ubuntu or Manjaro is "not possible" with the overlay to supportThe tlv320aic codec driver IS in the main line Linux kernel so it IS "possible" that the Ubuntu, Manjaro kernels will support DRAWS. There is other support for Pi hardware in the Raspbian kernel that "may" not be in the Ubuntu, Manjaro kernels. The only thing I can say is that the Raspbian kernel supports the Pi hardware better than other kernels.

Oh I have done that. Which is why I never want to do it again :) A repo source is much more reliable long-term. Alternately, I could install QtCreator I guess. That's a hammer, but may work and requires painful discovery of the required system files along with the Qt libraries to make it all work right. It can be challenging to make the end results portable that way.

If Ubuntu or Manjaro is "not possible" with the overlay to support DRAWS, that's all I really need to hear. No need to flog it with the group.

Re: Anyone have the DRAWS functional on Ubuntu for RPi 20 or 21?
The version on buster is 5.11.2 which is ancient.Not sure what you mean by ancient. The latest long term kernel version from kernel.org is 5.10.59 which was released yesterday. The current kernel in the Raspberry Pi Foundation repo is 5.10.52. The Raspberry Pi Foundation uses the Raspbian maintained kernel which does the best job of supporting the devices on the Raspberry Pi hardware. If you want a newer (bleeding edge) kernel I recommend you get the latest kernel source (next branch) from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux and cross compile and install that kernel. If you need help building the kernel use 'Raspberry Pi Documentation' https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/computers/linux_kernel.html#default_configuration I will say again you should cross compile the kernel on a decently fast machine. Trying to build natively on a Pi takes way too long. The first step after installing a new kernel is to run 'aplay -l' to confirm the DRAWS/UDRC device is enumerated. In terms of support you are mostly on your own. Mitch Winkle <ab4mw@radcommsoft.com> writes: [Edited Message Follows]

Anyone have the DRAWS functional on Ubuntu for RPi 20 or 21?
I make extensive use of Qt for things such as MQTT and others. The version on buster is 5.11.2 which is ancient. Ubuntu and Manjaro seem to have newer versions.
Has anyone had success using the DRAWS card with an RPi3 or 4 and Ubuntu or Majaro?

Re: RMS Gateway Question.
Looks like the Kenwood TM-G707 is similar to the TM-V71a.

In your radio manual look up transmit data input sensitivity. ie. for my Kenwood TM-V71a: 1200 bps: Transmit data input (PKD) sensitivity is 40 mV p-p , input impedance is 10 kΩ. 9600 bps: Transmit data input (PKD) sensitivity is 2 V p-p , input impedance is 10 kΩ. =============================================================================== 2.

Re: RMS Gateway Question.
Your symptoms are probably due to improper ALSA settings for the radio

RMS Gateway Question.
Good morning all,
I purchased the DRAWS and a Raspberry Pi 3B+ for a VHF 1200bd RMS Gateway project. I have a problem that I can't seem to solve but that I can replicate. I have had several users over the past week complain that when they send a message the message remains in thier outbox. A closer watch when the messages were sent shows a disconnect from the gateway before the message was completed. This was seen with standard messages as well as with attachments. Attachments was the first complaint. Some folks were going through a local digipeater on a mountain top and others were direct with the same issues. Some messages without attachments work just fine.

Andrew have been running it for several years on a Raspberry Pi and you are right the maps are slow. The course is long and narrow so have to pan only once. I use a raspberry pi because we work on battery power for the event and I cannot run direwolf and yaac on a tablet that uses lower power. I went to the Raspberry pi 4 for better graphics.
Thank you for your insight and building YAAC from an old analog designer. Tim KM4ESU
