Also, if non-GPS-based operation is all that is needed, just the use of redundancy within the clients is sufficient, and does not require any use of the server redundancy features.

=Voter Recording and Playback=
chan_voter has the ability to record VOTER streams by the channel driver live on the air (using the 'voter record' command in Asterisk). This also records time-stamped data and the voted receiver at that particular time along with RSSI readings. This can then be played back using the VoterPal GUI JAVA applet.
==How to setup playback==
# Download the [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/VoterPal.jar VoterPal application].
# Download the [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/lib/appframework-1.0.3.jar appframework-1.0.3.jar] and [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/lib/swing-worker-1.1.jar swing-worker-1.1.jar] files. Place these in a folder called lib in the same directory as the VoterPal application
# Run VoterPal.jar. You may come across issues with running Java such as security permissions. Most of these can be allowed.
# Once running, you will see the applications GUI. File > Open to select your voter data files. A bunch of test files have been made already to test [https://allstarlink.org/voterpal/datafiles/ here]

==== Activity ====
This will show time-stamped information including RSSI of the selected VOTER client within the recorded data stream
==== Voter Clients ====
This will show the real time voted client. This is also dependent of the Mode setting
==== Mode ====
Various modes can be selected in VoterPal
0 - Normal Voting Mode
1 - Randomly pick which client of all that are receiving at the max RSSI value to use
> 1 - Cycle thru all the clients that are receiving at the max RSSI value with a cycle time of (test mode - 1) frames. In other words, if you set it to 2, it will change every single frame. If you set it to 11, it will change every 10 frames. This is a serious torture test.
< 0 - Any value less than zero will force select the Voter Client (i.e. -1 is the first client, -2 is the 2nd client)
==== Reset ====
Resets the file back to start
==== Play ====
Plays the recorded file
==== Stop ====
Stops the current playing file in it's current position
==== CTCSS Filter Enable ====
Removes CTCSS hum from any recorded audio stream
==== File Play Position ====
Drag this slider to skip
