AllStarLink is a network of Amateur Radio repeaters, remote base stations and hot spots accessible to each other via Voice over Internet Protocol. AllStarLink runs on a dedicated computer (including the Rasperry Pi) that you host at your home, radio site or computer center. It is based on the open source Asterisk PBX running our app_rpt application. App_rpt makes Asterisk a powerful system capable of controlling one or more radios. It provides linking of these radio "nodes" to other systems of similar construction anywhere in the world via VoIP. AllStarLink’s primary use is as a dedicated computer node wired to your repeater or radio. Connections from Echolink, other VoIP clients and telephone calls are supported. AllStarLink has 33,197 users and 33,378 nodes. Help Support ASL The implementation of this system and its monthly upkeep is very costly. Any monetary help that you can and wish to give will be much appreciated. Allstarlink Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Donate ASL News We would like to humbly ask for some support in our cleanup and stability efforts. The initial funding goal is to reach out to node owners who have not donated in the past and have used ASL enough to see the benefits of its quality and long-term survival. We are asking for a voluntary donation of $1/mo ($12/yr) per node to help us maintain and improve the ASL eco-system. We also took notice that some long standing Allstar based repeater networks/clubs have annual membership dues/subscriptions. We would hope these organizations could pass some of that support forward to the enabling infrastructure. For those wishing to support our ongoing efforts please see our (501c3) donations page at AllStarLink | Donate And we thank you in advance, That is all for now, 73s and be safe, Pete Pete Elke /WI6H - President Todd Lesser /KM6RPT - Secretary David Shaw /WB6WTM - Treasurer Tim Sawyer /WD6AWP - Vice President Kevin Custer /W3KKC - Board Member Message from the AllstarLink Board of Directors December 29, 2020 To assure the long-term viability of the Allstar network we have re-engineered the core architecture for processing node registrations and the distribution of the current nodes list. This is part of an ongoing two-year project to provide sufficient resources for projected node growth and additional stability. In addition, this will create a stable framework for new types of clients to participate in the future. We would like to thank all the people involved in this effort over the past 24 months. There has been proof of concepts with varying development tools and numerous load tests and we commend the teams for their unsung efforts. We are pleased to be in the position of deployment as we feel this will remove many current limitations on growth. During this major architecture change there may be a few bumps in the road. We hope you will be forgiving of any outages in the next few days, and know that the back-end staff will be working diligently to identify and resolve any issues that may arise. You should also be aware that some specific volunteers (past and current) have opposed this sort of design change and we suspect that you may be reading negative comments from them on various platforms. The board’s staffing goals are to promote technical innovation from as many hams as want to get involved and bring new features and clients to Allstar. We look forward to greeting them and their ideas. Those wishing to get involved in the future of Allstar should contact us via email at [email protected] . Any comments or questions can be sent to [email protected] and we will respond as time permits and the new system settles in. From all of us, we thank you in advance for your patience during this change and we hope you continue to enjoy AllstarLink as much as we do. – 73s Pete Pete Elke /WI6H - President Todd Lesser /KM6RPT - Secretary David Shaw /WB6WTM - Treasurer Tim Sawyer /WD6AWP - Vice President Kevin Custer /W3KKC - Board Member Important Copyright Notification July 28, 2019 AllStarLink, Inc., the extension of Jim Dixon’s vision for AllStar, has obtained all rights including Copyright to app_rpt and associated material.
