Hi Skylar! I watch a LOT of amateur radio videos on KZbin and I have to say I'm truly impressed with you! I love how you just dig right in and are making incredibly efficient use of every bit of whatever resources you have at your disposal. Whatever it is that got you started down this path is...KEEP DOING IT! Follow your heart and your mind. Don't let others dissuade you. You're incredibly talented and I'm confident the world will hear your name in a few years. You've officially become my favorite KZbinr. I'm so happy I found you! Keep it up!!! You're awesome!

for your demo at the end, did you connect the speaker out to the mic in or were you able to access the internal audio (discriminator) to get better sound quality. I found that going speaker out through a controller and into the mic input, the sound is not as clear or full sounding than when you go through internally.

this is so awesome. i saw this video a few years ago, and it inspired me to build a steering controller similar to this on my kenwood tk-880 radio, using a DTMF decoder and a relay board to trigger the up and down buttons, soldered right to the control board like you had... but it didn't work that great because i didn't use the opto isolator, so it didn't always trigger the pulse accurately. i ended up abandoning that for a different radio system for the repeaters. but now i'm revisiting this again to see if i can use this for an allstar link.

I don't understand how the controller (allstarlink) confirm what memory the remote is on? If it's just counting mem ups or downs what will happen if the radio loses power for whatever reason and defaults to mem 01 but the software thinks it's on mem 03? If there is a way to tell the radio "goto mem 05" no matter what mem it starts out on then, wow that would be so superbl. I like your setup I have the similar radios (Maxtrac 300s and Radius) where I would love to add a VHF remote base radio to my repeater (MSF5000uhf) so the local hams can access an adjacent citiy via DTMF commands.

Thhank you for your comment Doug AllStar Cycles through all of the channels to find "Channel 2" Channel 2 is the only channel without a certain segment lit, so it "KNOWS where it is" once it has found channel 2. Then, AllStar presses Up/Down the right amount of times to get to the desired channel. Maxtracs/GM300 also have channel steering lines on the back, but the # of channels is limited. This is why I made this hacked method.
