This how-to will show you how to implement a '''remote base''' in Asterisk/app_rpt
The primary purpose of a remote base node is to make outgoing RF connections using a frequency Agile radio to allow access to frequency which are not part of your Internet connected radio system.

Security Issues
'''Security Issues'''
Unfettered access to remote bases can be a security issue. If the remote base has no login protection, it could be used by unscrupulous individuals to violate amateur radio rules and regulations. We strongly advise that all remote bases be protected by requiring a login code.

|-
|Command Decoding
|Remote or Local. DTMF can be optionally decoded on the receive audio input.
|Remote only. No DTMF will be decoded on the receive audio input.
|-
|Duplexing
|Configurable: duplex or half-duplex.
|Half-duplex only
|-
|Frequency and Mode Agility
|Fixed frequency operation, and channelized operation only using arguments passed in to app_rpt from ''extensions.conf''
|Frequency and Mode agile. Support for several radio types using asynchronous serial, CAT, and synchronous serial.
|-
|Multiple connections
|Multiple nodes can connect. Operates as a conference bridge.
|Only one node can connect at a time.
|-
|Login Protection
|No
