Automatic Audio Recording

Set up your HamVOIP node to record every transmission automatically. Click any command line to copy it.

Make a folder for the recordings called recordings. mkdir /recordings
Open your node config, /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf. nano /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf
Find the archivedir line. If it isn't there, add it under ; MISC. SETTINGS and point it at your new folder: archivedir = /recordings
Save and reboot. reboot

Now every time someone keys up, it gets recorded.

Use a large SD card. Recordings add up quickly on a busy node.

Clear the folder daily. If the card fills up, it will crash your system.

Tip: Install the Recording Archiver from the Scripts section to automatically zip your audio files.

Turn it off when you don't need it. Put a ; in front of the archivedir line to comment it out, then save and reboot.
