How To Build Your SHARI PiHat Step By Step Instructions

[@RichHuff]

Much better audio quality than DMR, and NO code plugs. I love it!

[@jmac217x]

Thanks Mike that's probably what I'll end up with after searching up and down for what to do you kinda nailed it

[@ripnlips-trouts]

Impressive build Mike. I hope there is a follow up vid on operations.

[@HamRadioDX]

Great build job Mike! Look forward to chatting with you over Allstar

[@KG5RJR]

Love my Shari AllStar!!

[@Bill-HRT]

Mike! The application of that sticker means you's bona fide now. Nice job. See you out there, and on Allstar. 73 de Bill

I too have Never soldered a castle nut. Either hammer pinned it or used blue locktite! 😅

[@chrissewell1608]

I think... That you use the Shari Pihat gizmo, for doing Echolink also. Maybe even be able to swap back and forth? If anyone knows for sure, let me know. I'd like to have one, especially fun as a kit build!

[@RookieLock]

Great project ! I'm very happy with my Shari node ! Are you going to go with HamVoip or ASL3?

[@chrissewell1608]

This is just like an 80% Lower-Pi case! 😂

[@hamradiotube]

Ha! I like it.

Curious if he wanted pins 9,10,11 also soldered to to shield to pull more heat off the chip via the ground plane.

[@stevesmith3162]

Actually the directions say it is OK if you accidently make a solder connection to the shield on pins 7, 9, 10 and 11. Here is the text from the construction manual. " The module shield is notched above each castellated hole except pins 9, 10 and 11 to minimize the possibility of a solder short to the shield from the castellated hole. Ensure that your soldering does not create a short of any castellated hole to the shield with the exception of pins 7, 9, 10 and 11. Check with an ohmmeter if in doubt."

Is it better to go with the VHF model or the UHF model? Also, which model of the Pi4 is best for this kit?

[@jamescookad9bu]

Does this run warm or hot? I have 2 Hot Spot Radio nodes and noticed that if I don't have either a fan on it or in it, it runs hot.

[@chrissewell1608]

You should water cool it!

[@kh6qmchristophercolquhoun695]

Have been using one for a bit and zero node in car.

[@hamradiotube]

Have you just not been able to get it to pair with your phone as a hotspot?

[@kh6qmchristophercolquhoun695]

@@hamradiotube use a hot spot no incoming but I can connect out.

[@KY4TRK]

Ok you left off with where's the software? Install and setup?

[@hamradiotube]

This is just a build video. There's a link in the description to Hayden Ham Radio DX on how to set it up that I followed.

[@michael-n5zr]

@@hamradiotube There is a newer version of Allstarlink available now, ASL3, and they have an image for the pi. @HamRadioCrusader has a video on it. Cool stuff

[@GraymanPOTA]

Just the tip 🌮🌮🌮

[@hamradiotube]

That's all I need!
