When using multimode digital voice systems like DMR, P25, and D-STAR, etc you may experience "robotic" or "garbled" audio due to multiple transcoding steps.

Multiple Codec Transcoding - Each digital mode uses a different voice codec:

• DMR: AMBE+2
• P25: IMBE/AMBE
• D-STAR: AMBE
• C4FM (Fusion): AMBE+2
• AllStarLink: GSM, G.711, or Opus
• DVSwitch: Software Transcoder to DMR/DSTAR

• Minimize Transcoding - Use direct mode communication when possible
• Optimize RF Conditions - Ensure a strong signal to avoid excessive error correction
• Check Network Stability - Reduce jitter and packet loss
• Use Quality Hardware - Some hotspot devices handle transcoding better
• Disable "Roger Beep" on Analog Radios when using digital bridges

73, The graph below is the MMDVM dashboard, to increase audio quality, just adjust MMDVM tx and rx offset to get "near-to-zero" BER for best audio quality

DVSwitch and AllStarLink nodes are often connected to RF radios for linking repeaters or simplex nodes.

1. Disabling CW ID Transmission
For AllStarLink (app_rpt.conf settings):
   nano /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf
   idrecording = none

For DVSwitch (MMDVM.ini):
   [CW ID]
   Enable=0

2. Enabling CTCSS Tone Decoding on the Receiver
   Edit rpt.conf:
   ctcssfrom = dsp
   rxctcssoverride = 0
   rxctcssfreqs = 88.5

   For CM108/CM119 USB sound card:
   rxctcssfreq = 88.5
   ctcss = yes

The modified UDP processing function drops corrupted packets rather than forwarding them to the AMBE3000. Features:

• Start Byte Check - Confirms packet begins with expected start byte (0x61)
• Payload Length Validation - Prevents buffer overflow from corrupted packets
• Packet Size Verification - Ensures received packet matches expected size

Good news! Google Play Store has approved the app.

For those who previously downloaded the apk, there's a new interface with faster searching.

Google PlayStore has taken down the MalaysiaCallsignLookup App. Please install manually from here.

In Malaysia, 31st August is a sacred date commemorating Malaysia's historic Independence Day in 1957. Every year, the Malaysian Amateur Radio community under MARTS conducts a "Special Event - CQ Merdeka".

On 31st August 2024, the call sign 9M67 was launched as "Specials Event CQ Merdeka 2024" to broadcast Malaysia's 67th independence celebration.

Successfully migrated HBlink3 from raspberry pi to virtual hosting farm since already a debian OS server - no longer need a raspberry pi to host HBlink3.

73 de 9W2LWK/9W4GWK

The XLXD OS has been migrated from outdated CentOS to latest Debian.

The purpose of the migration is to mitigate vulnerability on the outdated CentOS OS which has been EOL and migrated to different VM segment but remain on current public IP 103.197.58.223 and with Cloudflare protected.

73 de 9W2LWK/9W4GWK

Updates - cxlxprotocol.cpp:

The purpose of the original code is when no transcoder connected (i.e. xlxd not connected to ambed) then downgrade to using rev1 xlx protocol packets (dstar only) despite connected to rev2 peer.

After the suggested change it will always use rev2 packets (including both dstar and dmr/ysf ambe data) on interlinks to rev2 peers.

Due to new security features in Google Chrome and Brave browser, please enable http content for domain xlx.lucifernet.com.

Please put this on your /root/DMR_Hosts.txt on MMDVM PiStar to access HBLink3 custom DMR Server:

# Name                          DMR-ID  IP/Hostname                     Password        Port
HBLink_Malaysia-Net             0000    edone.lucifernet.com            passw0rd        62031

9W4GWK will be replaced with 9M2RUK as it is linked to 9M2RUK (analog side, not the C4FM side) which linked back via RF to 9W2LWK Yaesu FT7900 radio via Diamond cp22e antenna.

Now you can order R1-2020 for AllStarLink, plug and play for analog radio to link to DMR-gateway AllStarLink node 47259.

Due to limited AMBE hardware, we disabled Module A transcoding. Module C and D will remain transcoding.
