Welcome to the PTTLink Wiki

PTTLink is a world wide network of Amateur Radio repeaters, remote base stations and hot spots accessible to each other via the Internet and/or private IP networks.

PTTLink/AllStarLink runs on a dedicated Linux computer (including the Raspberry Pi) that you host at your home, radio site, clubhouse, school, university, workplace, or computer center.

It is based on the open source Asterisk PBX and is released under the GNU GPL -- it is free for anyone to use.

The core of PTTLink is the powerful app_rpt application and associated modules that load into the Asterisk PBX system which is released under the GPL v2 license.
