    rtl_airband Suddenly Picking Up Noise - Makes Scanning Unlistenable

    Ah well...memories will have to do; started listening to CPD on an old Bearcat 210 back in the early 90s. Moved up to a RadioShack Pro-82 and then a RadioShack Pro-433, the latter I used to stream to Broadcastify before I switched to SDRs. Now on to mapping out the new P25 channels and see what...

    rtl_airband Suddenly Picking Up Noise - Makes Scanning Unlistenable

    Well crap. That would explain the digital noises I've been hearing - like you said sounds almost P25 indeed. Can't believe I didn't think to check something like that, thanks for being more keen than I. I've been listening to CPD since I was a kid; they've had the same frequencies since I can...

    rtl_airband Suddenly Picking Up Noise - Makes Scanning Unlistenable

    Hello, Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance! I provide the Chicago Police feed that scans all their freqs at Broadcastify via rtl_airband...it's been relatively fine up until recently, not sure what happened; conf file stayed the same. I'm getting a TON of noise all the sudden, like...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    Again, really appreciate the help! Sorry for the back and forth here... Here's how I have cfg.json now: I get alpha tags going to VLC locally, but no audio. I don't get any audio on the live broadcastify stream either. I also see that the 2 audio instances are ignored per the OP25 log file...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    Well I've noticed 2 issues here... The first issue is that I've got a cfg.json sending 2 different sets of alpha tags, but no audio. Is it something with the audio section and the "device_name": "default" ?? I tried replacing "default" with "pulse" and still no audio. Is there something else...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    Little more info here after some quick digging...I was trying to do this all from one, single linux box (raspi pi 4). Not sure, with the default config, you can do relays from one, single machine. What I can do, it appears (I haven't tested this yet, though), is to set up a reverse proxy via...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    You are accurate in assuming I use Icecast2; I will check this out for sure! I have read through their docs before and, to me, it seemed like I needed config on the OP25 side to make sure the data is sent for Icecast2 to pick up - BUT I don't recall reading too much about RELAY. If I do end up...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    Right. I have been streaming using OP25 (thank you again!) and liquidsoap for a while now - but the issue is that when I use meta.json and rx.py to stream to both Broadcastify and to a machine on my LAN, I only see alpha tags (sorry, not meta tags like I originally stated) on Broadcastify and...

    OP25 OP25: Send Meta Tags to Broadcastify & Local Stream

    Hello, I am trying to send icecast meta tags to my local stream as well as Broadcastify. If I use rx.py and meta.json I am able to see meta tags on Broadcastify, but not my local stream. I was able to configure config.json and multi_rx.py to send audio to both my local stream and...

    Chicago Police Zone 3 - Districts 12 and 14 Broadcast Feed Issues

    Hi- I saw your message about putting a new Districts 12 and 14 feed up (I provide the Chicago feed that scans all the Districts), but the forum won't let me reply messages directly to you. I would entertain the thought of adding that feed here, but the original feed provider needs to shut...

    OP25 Question regarding whitelist/blacklist and multiple voice channels

    Thanks wgbecks & boatbod! I've read through and tried multi_rx.py but I think I am misunderstanding the logic there. I've got a JSON file set up for multi_rx.py to use; I am trying to send the same stream to both broadcastify and to a local IP. I wasn't getting any audio and was only seeing...

    OP25 Question regarding whitelist/blacklist and multiple voice channels

    Sorry to butt in here! I have a similar setup - but was wondering how to send the metadata (alphatags) to my local stream. Is there a way to accomplish this? In order to send metadata to broadcastify the meta.json file needs to match what's in the liq file in the output.icecast section...does...

    OP25 OP25 + Liquidsoap = No Audio

    Neglected to post my icecast.xml file. Here's what my /etc/icecast2/icecast.xml file looks like: around line 64: <hostname>localhost</hostname> <!-- You may have multiple <listen-socket> elements --> <listen-socket> <port>6969</port> <!--...

    OP25 OP25 + Liquidsoap = No Audio

    I've successfully got OP25/liquidsoap/IceCast2 sending audio and meta tags. Maybe this will help someone in the future; I'm running Linux (Debian) on Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.4 with an m2 SATA and a Noolec SDR. Here's my rx.py: ./rx.py --args 'rtl' --gains 'lna:49' -S 960000 -q 0 -2 -T...

    OP25 OP25 + Liquidsoap = No Audio

    Thing is, I was running both those files at once...I just don't get audio. I launch my rx.py script and then then execute the op25.liq one and no audio...but I get audio when I just do the op25.liq script by itself. I'll have to play around with settings and whatnot to figure out what's going...

    OP25 OP25 + Liquidsoap = No Audio

    Hey, I like to tinker...wasn't trying to run it like that the whole time, just to see what was happening :) Anyway...when you mean run the op25.liq script do you mean this? pi@raspi4g:~ $ cd ~/op25/op25/gr-op25_repeater/apps pi@raspi4g:~/op25/op25/gr-op25_repeater/apps $ ./op25.liq 2021/03/14...

    OP25 OP25 + Liquidsoap = No Audio

    Right on, again, I very much appreciate you taking the time to look at this! I am running Raspian/GNU Linux 10 (buster). Here's my exact rx.py: ./rx.py --args "rtl" -N 'lna:49' -T trunk.tsv -S 1000000 -q 0 -d 0 -D cqpsk -v 1 -2 -w -u 23456 -V -X -M meta.json 2> stderr.log I already had...

    First and foremost - many thanks for taking your time to develop this bad boy - talkgroups appeared immediately, it works pretty much out of the box! Well done, and again, much appreciated - thank you! Also, thank you for replying here as I know I've posted a couple threads now and you can tell...
