Great video, good info for newbies with AllStar like me😊 Thanks Glenn

Do these compare to the same price as the Shari nodes. Our club just purchased 8 Shari node kits for $135 AUD each. If the price is about the same price I might give your node a try.

Nice to see a video from you ! Hope all is well.. Looks like a great Node/Hat !

Awesome kit Glenn - love mine.

Excelent Job! 73 PY9JI

These hats work beautifully with either hamvoip or asl3

Will you be adding PayPal as a payment option or will VK Direct be selling these like he does your MMDVM kits? 73

Looks like a very nice unit. Interested to see availability come to the US. Several options here already for AllStar but it’s always nice to have competition and options. Thanks 73

Well done Glenn, looks great. Ian VK4IAK.

Do these boards still make contact and work if you don't solder the pins?

Sigh! I like icoms but there's about no D Star repeaters around here.

Nice video. because people never leave any time between transmissions i cant disconnect from the tg i am . i have to go to dashboard with my single hotspot. can i hear a tg in one channel of duplex hotspot and to disconnect it from the other at duplex hotspot from my radio? Appreciate your help. de sv8djw

How do you configure the radio to use the PTT instead of the on-screen PTT?

Great stuff, and I use the IP method too, but I'm stumped as to why I cannot get to the pi-star web page on my Android 'phone. VPN disabled. IP is displayed on the Nextion anyway but access the web page? Nope. Press on I suppose.

I got a duplex one, and I agree 1000% duplex ones are repeaters

Nice working app, but it just uses way too much date for a VOIP, I used 5 gb of data with it on daily for 7 days, the amount of data is too embarrassing to mention, but will not use this on my Cellular data line just on wifi. The Zello Walkie Talkie app for a month of daily use only use under 1 gb of data if that.

Great video! I'm waiting for mine to arrive as a foundation ham in the UK, 73s

I bought a Yaesu FT-5D and an OpenSpot4 Pro, but the audio quality of Yaesu System Fusion, YSF isn’t as good as FM, a disappointed about the digital modes YSF, DMR, and D-Star. I then bought the Kits4Hams Shari with the Raspberry Pi 4, the assembled and tested version. Now, I have to figure out how to use the Shari PiHat4. From your experience, is the AllStarLink audio quality significantly better than the audio quality that you get with the YSF, DMR, and D-Star digital modes?

How to you program the radio. I have a anytone..

Brilliant. Will look into it. I use dmr and others via android with peanut. But this looks more versatile. Heard it mentioned many times and asked about it. But all i get is a empty reply. Never an explanation. Thanks for info de gw4gja

I will have a single AT ht dmr I thr house do I jeed duplex

Appreciate you sharing this video and information mostly all new to me. 73 de AA4SH

Excellent!~ Very clear and to the point. Node Remote looks like the gear too. vk4etc

What hotspot is this because I have it or a clone and it comes with some junk OSTAR firmware which I hate. I'd love to flash WPSD on it but it doesn't have an SD Card just two Micro USBs?

Excellent video. Many thanks.

They are definitely not low cost anymore.

Thanks, now I can take my yaesu outside. promise I won't use yours password.

My biggest gripe with dmr is people never leave any time between transmissions. I mean never. No matter how many DMR network sites and forums or tg webpages constantly reminding people to leave a few seconds between them.... People still hit that ptt as fast as they can. I always have to go to my dashboard and disconnect the tg that way. Occasionally I get lucky and the entire conversation is over but not usually. I love ham radio but I will never understand how certain people fight to hit the ptt over anyone else to say absolutely nothing most of the time lol. Just be patient and let other people get a transmission in on occasion. It will eventually come back around and you can go off on whatever crazy tangent you are dying to say on the airways nuts! 😂

Thank you. I have a Mini 1.3 OLED Zum Spot Mini. I haven’t been able to get it to connect to any of my wireless networks. I plan to give the Ethernet adapter a try. It’s just a shame that the pi-star software doesn’t do a better job at network configurations. They should also add a section that shows the Ethernet adapter settings.

Great informative video. My question is, can you run more than one adapter if they are name brand or a better quality device? I am having issues with the Pi-Star dashboard if my computer is Ethernet and the hotspot is Wifi.

"Australian seller" LOL who buys bulk on AliExpress...

Thanks. just ordered one.

A friend is bugging me to get an allstar node. I just don't get it. I see no need. We did DMR a few years ago, that was fun for a minute. Everything is just crickets anymore. Done spending money on it.

I just found your video and I know it is 4 yrs old but i was wondering with all your hotspots running how do you access the different dashboards without unplugging all but one hotspot they all seem to use the same ip address?

I had missed this video, thanks for posting the reminder and tips. M7WDX

Just starting out in dmr I'm going for thr simplex one right now

Please realize that Ham's hack the use of the term simplex. This leads to people taking it beyond a redefine. For example, your definition of duplex is completely wrong. It is possible to operate duplex with tx & rx on the same frequency. This takes a more expensive radio, one with two transceivers. Wee we operate on repeaters we are operating half-duplex. The is the same as operating peer to peer on a single frequency. To operate true simplex, just turn on your auto's FM stereo. That's true simplex.

Thanks, this is one of the best videos I've seen on this topic. When you say you use 2m for your Allstar node, is that primarily because your other shack radios are all 70cm mostly? I mostly operate on 2m for the rest of my stuff so was thinking 70cm might be the go for mine.

I have 2 brand new in boxes have had for 18 mths this code plug thing has me stumped so they are doorstops at the moment

CAN i access the PI-HOTSPOT FOR EXAMPLE IM USING THE HOSPOT TO SEND THE DATA IN MY WEBSITE?

Cannot get the board to be found on my computer, tried installing driver, opened BlueDV and device not found, cannot even use device manager (on three different computers) to find the device... help, please?

Trying to get my head around Duplex Hotspot. Would the only difference be you can listen to a repeater through the hotspot to both Time Slots? This would work if your radio's main channel and sub channel where on the same frequency but one on Time Slot 1 and the other on Time Slot 2 along with their specific Talk Groups? Do I have this right? No other benefits besides listening to 2 Timeslots at the same time? Does a Duplex hotspot have any value when your on a Network like TGIF

What does the display do?

Awesome video. Very well explained. Thanks to Glenn, Mike and co for demystifying the reflector. Well done fellas

Do you still supply these?

Any one have any information on how to run p25 no matter how I try to set my zumspot it will not let me link to any 925 links on pistar

have you got a video on the software setup ? I am VK4 as well...

Question? Do you have to have a Rasberry Pi to make this work?

For me, the solder does not melt to the pin, no matter how long I hold it there, no matter how hot my iron. Any idea why?

I'm about to knock my first hotspot together and this was very well worth watching. 73 es cheers.
