Question

[SpudGunMan]

This looks very interesting. I was going to try and run on a pi4

My question is will this function as a repeater without network? Meaning off grid can I get the functions you list of TGID

Unclear will this TS1-TS2 cross repeater single frequency .. (or duplex) -- or do i need qtyX master and slaves.

Hello! Thanks for the interest in the project. I wrote a decent amount of documentation on the wiki since you've opened this, so some of this may already be there: https://github.com/USA-RedDragon/DMRHub/wiki

will this function as a repeater without network

To clarify, DMRHub is a DMR master and not a repeater implementation (i.e. it speaks Homebrew Repeater Protocol, not RF).

It does still need some sort of network connection by which MMDVMs, Pi-Star repeaters and such can push DMR frames to the server, but it does not require any external internet access (note, it embeds the DMR user and repeater ID databases, and will try to update these at midnight UTC over the internet if available).

Unclear will this TS1-TS2 cross repeater single frequency .. (or duplex) -- or do i need qtyX master and slaves.

Sorry, I don't quite understand this question. If you're asking about if single-frequency hotspots/repeaters will receive traffic from both timeslots, then yes if the repeater has the appropriate static/dynamic talkgroups configured.

If I misunderstood the question, please feel free to correct me and explain it.

I will check out the wiki!

That's good about no internet needed.

The question about TS1 and TS2 and repeater.

Will the code allow single frequency repeater. Tx on TS1 and rx the audio on TS2 simplex.

#No hotspot. Lots of hot spots out there. Hope to have a master or master slave repeater with only a pi off grid.

Could attach project to a 5/50w for offline functionality use in emergency

Will the code allow single frequency repeater. Tx on TS1 and rx the audio on TS2 simplex.

Currently, there is no code written for this specific usecases, however, the architecture of the app would allow this in the future. There are a couple of what I'm calling "alternate modes" on repeaters I'd like to implement, such as a setting to use any free slot if possible. (i.e. timeslot routing where both slots are maximally active). I'll add this usecase to the list.

#11 created to track the progress of that. It could be a week or two before I get to these alternative modes, but they're definitely on the roadmap

Should make a ripple in the pond! Have fun - will be handy!
