Hi Gary and all, I've been building computer systems since the '80s. So, it's not hard for me.
David VK5DGR supplied the "freebeacon" "C" sourcecode way back in the development of Codec2. A test piece of software, a "reverse beacon", to "listen" for a Codec2 signal and report on it's bit error rate and transmit that back in the text part of a transmission. And also a second piece of software to use the API (library) and thus check for bugs. I have no problem using the "C" compiler on Linux computers either PC or the Raspberry Pi and similar ARM based Small Board Computers. Here I use a Banana Pi M2 Berry because it has a SATA port on which is an SSD. This keeps my power bill down (for this project). Just about any audio interface that can do a samplerate of 8000 samples per sec. And, any PTT interface, I use a USB serial port and DTR. A "ready to go" SD card image can readily be made if there's sufficient interest. Thus far, in the last five years, you Gary have been the only one who's asked. 73 Alan VK2ZIW On Mon, 21 Feb 2022 01:20:14 -0500, Gary Kohtala - K7EK via Freetel-codec2 wrote > Alan, > > Please refresh our memory as to how one goes about setting up a FreeBeacon. > Seems that I looked into it early on but passed as it was beyond my abilities > at the time. > > Thanks. > > Best regards, > > Gary, K7EK > --------------------------------------------------- Alan VK2ZIW Before the Big Bang, God, Sela.
