-====== Svx Mobile ======
-=== Plan... ===
-To make a mobile hotspot that will provide access to SVXReflector and Echolink as well as a handy single-frequency parrot repeater.
-===== Hardware =====
-Remains the same as the previous portable //hotspot//
-  * Raspberry Pi
-  * CM108 soundcard
-  * IC-2E or FT-60
-  * MiFi router
-It will be installed in my vehicle, which also has a TM-D710 for APRS and voice comms. The hotspot/gateway will use a handheld radio, either an old IC-2E for 2m (only) or I might experiment with the FT-60 as the radio, to allow either 2m **or** 70cm to be used, as required.
-<todo>Add 5V regulator to power R.Pi from 12VDC</todo>
-==== SVXLink Config ====
-No big changes....
-  * Echolink Module enabled (switchable via DTMF commands)
-  * Echolink using a [[https://www.echolink.org/proxylist.jsp| a Public Proxy]] to enable incoming connections. **This might be removed in future**
-=== Logic.tcl additions for switching EL on/off ===
-Added to ''<...>/events.d/local/Logic.tcl''
-<code tcl>
-# This function can be used to implement your own custom commands or to disable
-# DTMF commands that you do not want users to execute.
-proc dtmf_cmd_received {cmd} {
-  #global active_module
-  # Example: Ignore all commands starting with 3 in the EchoLink module.
-  #          Allow commands that have four or more digits.
-  #if {$active_module == "EchoLink"} {
-  #  if {[string length $cmd] < 4 && [string index $cmd 0] == "3"} {
-  #    puts "Ignoring random connect command for module EchoLink: $cmd"
-  #    return 1
-  #  }
-  #}
-  # Handle the "force core command" mode where a command is forced to be
-  # executed by the core command processor instead of by an active module.
-  # The "force core command" mode is entered by prefixing a command by a star.
-  #if {$active_module != "" && [string index $cmd 0] != "*"} {
-  #  return 0
-  #}
-  #if {[string index $cmd 0] == "*"} {
-  #  set cmd [string range $cmd 1 end]
-  #}
-  # Example: Custom command executed when DTMF 99 is received
-  if {$cmd == "99"} {
-    puts "Executing external command"
-    playMsg "Core" "online"
-    exec /home/gm4slv/svx_ref_noel.sh &
-    return 1
-  }
-  # Example: Custom command executed when DTMF 98 is received
-  if {$cmd == "98"} {
-    puts "Executing external command"
-    playMsg "Core" "online"
-    exec /home/gm4slv/svx_ref.sh &
-    return 1
-  }
-  return 0

-  * DTMF command ''99#'' will cause svxlink to restart with a different config, that **does not** have ModuleEchoLink enabled.
-  * DTMF command ''98#'' will cause svxlink to restart with the standard config, the **does** have ModuleEchoLink enabled.
-=== Start with Echolink ===
-<code bash>
-#!/bin/bash
-CFG=/usr/local/etc/svxlink/svxlink.conf
-LOG=/home/gm4slv/svxlink.log
-sudo killall svxlink
-sudo killall svxlink
-sudo killall svxlink
-echo "25" > /sys/class/gpio/export
-sleep 2
-echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio25/direction
-sudo svxlink --daemon --logfile=$LOG --config=$CFG
-exit 0
-</code>
-=== Start without Echolink ===
-<code bash>
-#!/bin/bash
-CFG=/usr/local/etc/svxlink/svxlink_ref_noel.conf
-LOG=/home/gm4slv/svxlink.log
-sudo killall svxlink
-sudo killall svxlink
-sudo killall svxlink
-echo "25" > /sys/class/gpio/export
-sleep 2
-echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio25/direction
-sudo svxlink --daemon --logfile=$LOG --config=$CFG
-exit 0
-</code>
-It's probable that I'll configure the initial start ''@reboot'' to be //without// Echolink
-''crontab''  ->  ''@reboot sleep 30 && sudo -u gm4slv /home/gm4slv/svx_ref_noel.sh >/dev/null 2>&1''
-and then only enable the Echolink module (with ''98#'') when I want to be available on Echolink, or to use it myself. Using a PROXY server for connecting to Echolink is necessary because it's not possible to control external firewall/port forwarding when using the MiFi 4G router for internet access. Connecting ''direct'' to Echolink, without the ''proxy'' still allows outgoing Echolink connections, and this might be my final choice for the mobile hotspot.
-=== Parrot ===
-I imagine being able to use the Parrot feature as a temporary single-frequency repeater perhaps for emergency use?
-I'll experiment....
