hi I with my using a dvmega +pi2 with my home call EI3GC and it works fine with nov 2015 g4klx, I have tried seting up a a registered special event call EI1916E and while eveyrthing boots up on the pi i cannot connect to say ref001c as all i get is Linking to REF xxxx and when I key up Invalid mycall value ignoring will g4klx take 7digit calls or as is more probable I am skrewing up in the set up? thanks Liam

I don't think G4KLX will allow a 7-char callsign. It woulds cause issues with the command syntax, as the 7th char is used to specify the module in, for example, a linking command.
Probably best to ask in the pcrepeatercontroller Yahoo group.

I'm definitely a noobie and way out of my depth. I need your assistance. I set up my DVAP/RPi 3b and VNC'ed in to see what was happening under the hood. When I transmit on the DVAP frequency (432.00 in my case) DSTAR Repeater window on RPi reports "Invalid MYCALL value of , ignoring" Hard to tell how many spaces are there. I tried to follow your instructions closely and used the PC configuration utility. I sir, am quite lost in this digital wilderness. Any help would be appreciated.

What do you have set in the MYCALL field of your radio? Without any more info, it sounds to me like the DSTAR parameters in your radio aren't configured correctly, or perhaps at all.
Your callsign should be in the MYCALL field, URCALL should contain either CQCQCQ while communicating or a command to be sent to the hotspot (e.g. linking commands, SHUTDOWN, REBOOT etc), and RPT1/RPT2 can be left blank.
Regards

Hi Bob
Yep that was the problem. I didn't have my callsign in the MYCALL field. Now all is working. Thanks.
