Re: Point to Point (P2P) email transfer

In your mail apps you address messages using p2p, telnet or ax.25
exactly the same way <some_call_sign>@winlink.org. Do not change this for p2p. As I said before once messages are composed and existing in your outbox directory /usr/local/var/wl2k/outbox, you can send them using p2p (nearby winlink machine), telnet (CMS) or ax.25 (winlink RMS Gateway). The messages and how they are addressed are exactly the same for all the different transports. To send a message via p2p use wl2kax25 & drop the SSID from the call sign, that's all there is to it. ie. wl2kax25 -c n7nix Kevin K. - N7KJK <kkutzera@gmail.com> writes: OK so the reinstall fixed the PLUWEB..

OK so the reinstall fixed the PLUWEB.. Thanks..
On the P2P Packet. My friend and I are now reliably handshaking, and it appears we're transferring messages. I'm sending to his plain call sign (no @domain) and he's sending to my call sign. He reported the following information to me. ** n7kjkpi.localnet says it could not deliver my message, msg "unknown user k7rmz@... ** I am of course N7KJK. Not sure where that email address at the end of his report is coming from . In RainLoop I can't compose a message to him because it requires @domain in the email address. Claws lets me compose an email to the call sign. (all messages show up in the Sent items folder even before I try to send). Somehow while typing this reply, my friend sent me an email directly (no gateway) addressed to N7KJK@..... Not sure how that worked... I think something similar to the issue with my email address instead of pi@localhost. My system doesn't know what to do with a message addressed to N7KJK (no ssid, no domain, no @) 73 Kevin N7KJK I can send whatever log segments might help . I'll just not sure which one's you want to see. I'll certainly update this thread if I find some interesting information. Kevin

I’m operating remotely at the moment, I’ll double-check everything when I get home. It’s got to be something hardware at this point but I’m out of ideas. Thanks, Chris

Re: Point to Point (P2P) email transfer
#draws
Kevin K. - N7KJK
Thanks Basil,
So I've read the MAN pages for both wl2kax25d and ax25d. Somewhat illuminating.. A friend of mine tried to connect using both N7KJK, and N7KJK-10 (my Winlink Gateway address). He tried these both as Packet P2P, and Packet WinLink. He only had one connection using the callsign with SSID. It didn't accept of send email and he had to force the disconnect. I think I am beginning to understand how to control this. So Here's my new configuration of ax25d.conf. My radio is connected to the DIN port farthest away from the GPS sma antenna port. I see traffic (beacons) all day long (mostly with invalid or Unknown APRS Type Indicator.. (no big deal).
My assumption is that if a station is trying to call me with my SSID they are treating my PI as an RMS-Gateway. I send their traffic through to the gateway software. If the station is trying to call me without the SSID they are attempting Packet P2P and local email will be forwarded as indicated in the man page. [N7KJK-10 VIA udr1] NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * - rmsgw /usr/local/bin/rmsgw rmsgw -P %d %U
#
[N7KJK VIA udr1]
NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * - gunn /usr/local/bin/wl2kax25d wl2kax25d -c %U -a %d
The version I was running during the test had N7KJK-10 listening on udr0. I don't have a second radio listening on that port but the hand off to rmsgw was given the wrong port so my station didn't reply properly. So my friend will test again tomorrow. I'll update this thread success of failure so we have info to share with others. Next on my punch list is to get this to beacon periodically like other stations do... 73 Kevin / N7KJK

Headphone/Microphone break-out?
Stuart Longland VK4MSL
Hi all,
Silly thought just occurred to me… one sore point with the Raspberry Pi is that the device provides no audio I/O apart from the PWM audio output. Now, the UDRC/DRAWS is a big improvement on that, with a decent audio CODEC chip capable of 192kHz audio. There's 3 line-in channels, a MICBIAS output, a line-out and a headphone output, all available on the audio CODEC chip. The mixer is able to do all kinds of routing voodoo. With such a set-up, whilst of course you won't drive a headset and two radios off the two ADC and two DAC channels, you could conceivably drive one radio and one headset with the right routing settings, or use the headphone output as a monitor. In applications where you just want something to connect a headset to your radio for SSB/FM voice, that can be facilitated through the mixer alone (no latency as it's purely analogue): e.g. if the microphone hooked to IN3[L+R], you could route IN3L→LOL and IN1L→HPL; or IN3R→LOR and IN1R→HPR. You'd then just need a switch to connect your headset either to HPL or HPR (or both if you want to use the UDRC/DRAWS as a sound card for music, etc). Anyway, it was a thought that occurred to me. Maybe in a future design, a small pin header could expose those pins for those who choose to use them. Regards, -- Stuart Longland (aka Redhatter, VK4MSL) I haven't lost my mind... ...it's backed up on a tape somewhere.

No audio in/out with my FT-817, Pi4, and DRAWS
Chris Metcalf
I've been trying to get my Raspberry Pi 4 working with my DRAWS hat but I think either my connection is messed up or my audio setup / levels wrong.
I've followed the Google Doc on how to set up your Pi4 (https://docs.google.com/document/u/2/d/1Wq-jNLXYuREIOcr0OVu1FxPNhDFGuCOu6dX5OQ2BVxA/mobilebasic) and the setup guide for the FT-817 (https://nw-digital-radio.groups.io/g/udrc/wiki/DRAWS%3A-App-Notes-for-Radios)
Maybe I'm doing something wrong and I've been staring at it too long to notice? Can somebody please look over my setup below and let me know if spot something amiss? I had things working with my Pi3, so I suspect I’m missing something that’s in the stock Compass image but missing in a hand-configured Buster setup.
## Symptoms
- S7 noise floor, and I can hear signals but nothing in the WSJT-X waterfall
- Panadapter shows plenty of signals I'm not getting in the WSJT-X waterfall
- Nothing on ALC meter when I tune with WSJT-X
- No signal displayed in the waterfall when I switch to VHF and send a test transmission from my HT
- Nothing received on my HT when I transmit a tuning signal on VHF
## Hardware
- Yaesu FT-817
- LDG Z-817 antenna tuner
- 4GB Raspberry Pi 4
- DRAWS hat
- PAT-V panadapter installed
## Settings
- 03 9600 Mic: 50
- 24 Dig Disp: 0Hz
- 25 Dig Mic: 61
- 26 Dig Mode: User-U
- 27 Dig Shift: 0Hz
- 38 Op Filter: Off
- 39 Pkt Mic: 50
- 40 Pkt Rate: 1200
- AGC: Fast
- Noise Blanker: Off
## Connections
- Pin 6 removed from the Data cable
- Data cable in Left (facing the connectors) jack
- USB Serial CAT cable
- Offset fed dipole on a 6:1 balun connected via an antenna tuner
## WSJT-X Setup
- CAT control set up and working
- Input: plughw:CARD=udrc,DEV=0 in Mono mode (
- Output: plughw:CARD=udrc,DEV=0 in Mono mode
I've tried Left, Right, and other udrc input devices to no success)
## ALSA Setup
I ran the setup-ft817.sh script to set my levels:
===== ALSA Controls for Radio Transmit =====
LO Driver Gain L:[-6.00dB] R:[-6.00dB]
PCM L:[-20.00dB] R:[-20.00dB]

Re: Fans, Pi4, and the DRAWS case
Chris Metcalf
FWIW, the “Pi-Fan” brand fan that came with my case is _extremely_ quiet and can barely be heard even from a foot or two away.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
A big passive heat sink could possibly help, but the “hat” standard makes that difficult since the hat sits right on top of the Pi and doesn’t leave much room for a heat sink. Perhaps a later generation case could include a riser or some sort of heat pipe system to dissipate heat outside the case. Key learning though is that it looks like the Pi4 is impractical without some sort of cooling for the CPU. I’ve still got my 3B+ and may reconsider it if the power and cooling requirements are too high, but right now I’m _loving_ the extra memory and CPU. -- Chris Metcalf

Re: Fans, Pi4, and the DRAWS case
Jeff AE8W
I like the idea of not having to have a fan ... maybe. lol
Orienting heat sink fins vertical and given that warm air flows up, makes the best use of passive cooling. Can you tell that I am an engineer? Apologies. Probably good that there be a little air space around below and above the heatsink. On the other hand, the specs for fans include the dB noise level and a very quiet low speed fan can greatly improve heat exchange in any orientation. Just read the specs and investigate.

I am hoping the Pi 4 draws less than 20W. I run completely on solar power and looking for a desktop replacement with DRAWS. Fan noise can be mitigated. I have a 2n1 laptop/tablet that draws about 25W but I'd much rather have the DRAWS and some other apps in one device.
