SvxLink is a project that develops software targeting the ham radio community. It started out as an EchoLink application for Linux back in 2003 but has now evolved to be something much more advanced.

Set up on Bookworm on a Pi 5

Install the software

sudo apt-get install svxlink-server remotetrx svxlink-calibration-tools svxlink-gpio

Just installing will start up remotetrx, whether I need it or not. :-)

Starting svxlink requires a configuration in /etc/svxlink/, you have to set a few things in svxlink.conf. Call sign. W6GKD/L Enable echolink. US sound files are installed by default.

I wonder if I can get it to connect with TARRA reflector, I guess it has to identify as wickiup and be on wireguard for this.

Wireguard

sudo apt install wireguard

Copy and paste from TARRA to /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf

sudo systemctl enable [email protected]
sudo systemctl start [email protected]

SVXPortal

There's a web interface called "svxportal" that I am going to set up on Bellman following some instructions here: https://sk7rfl.se/doc/SvxPortal2.5.pdf
