;
; Thelinkbox is based on the code from the "thebridge" EchoLink conference
; server package and uses the same configuration file plus variables that
; are unique to thelinkbox.  In the following mentally replace "conference"
; with "node".  i.e. The ConferenceCall variable is really the callsign
; of your node.

###############################################################################
; The following parameters must always be set 

; ConferenceCall - Callsign of node.  Required.
; If the node is to be used on the EchoLink network the callsign MUST be 
; entered in UPPERCASE.  The callsign must be either a link "-L", 
; repeater "-R" or conference name "*{name}*", the EchoLink directory server 
; not accept a login from thelinkbox using just a "bare" callsign.
; 
; This variable should be set even when thelinkbox is not going to be used
; with EchoLink.
ConferenceCall = W1AW

; Working directory.  This is where thelinkbox creates its files. Required.
; Make sure that the specified directory exists and that the user account
; used to run TLB has read and write privileges in it.
WorkingDir = /usr/home/tlb

###############################################################################
; Include configuration files for all radio ports.
; The port configuration can be included in the main file if desired, but
; it's probably cleaner and less confusing to have one configuration file
; per port.  Use of a full path is recommended to avoid confusion.

include /usr/home/tlb/port0.conf
include /usr/home/tlb/port1.conf

; Variables used to configure optional text to speech synthesizer

; Set the following variable to use the specified text to speech synthesizer
; instead of PCM file for announcements.  This gives a greater flexibility 
; on what can be said but it doesn't sound as good as PCM files.
; The program is expected to accept two arguments:
;       argument1 = path to text file containing text to convert
;       argument2 = path to output WAVE file.
; The TTS program should generate the audio in a 16 bit 8 Khz WAVE file format.
; TTS_ExePath can be set to point to a script file that provides a wrapper
; for the actual TTS program to add any command line options needed by the
; TTS program.
; 
; TTS_ExePath = /usr/bin/flite

; By default thelinkbox inserts spaces between letters when using a speech 
; synthesizers when saying a callsign to attempt to get speech synthesizers to
; spell the callsign out letter by letter.  Unfortunately some speech 
; synthesizers (Cepstral for example) pronounce single letter abbreviations 
; when they follow a number.  For example "K I 4 S W B" results in 
; "K I 4 South W B" and "w d 5 m" results in "w d 5 meters". 
; The following variable specifies text to insert between callsign characters
; to force the speech synthesizer to spell the callsign letter by letter.
; The dash, '-', seem to work well for Cepstral 4.x and "<break />" works
; well for Cepstral 5.x.  
;CallSignSpelling = -

; The following variable specifies an optional file containing words to be 
; used to spell callsigns phonetically.  The file should contain a single
; word per line starting with the word for 'A' and ending with the word for '9'
; See the files scripts/phonetic.ham, /scripts/phonetic.us and 
; scripts/phonetic.ansi.
;PhoneticFilePath = phonetic.ham

; The following variable sets the amount of audio that is buffered on 
; VoIP connections before being sent to sound card in milliseconds.  
;
; The propagation delay across the Internet from one location to another is 
; not constant even for packets that are sent at almost the same time.  It 
; is essential that there be some buffering of audio in VoIP applications to 
; avoid audio dropouts when packets arrive late.  No or too little buffering 
; causes dropouts and too much buffering causes unnecessary delays which 
; become intrusive to normal conversations.
;
; The minimum amount of buffering is two packets.  The duration of audio 
; contained an a single packet varies with the protocol and compression 
; algorythm.  Here are some numbers:
;
; RTP/GSM       - 80 milliseconds
; RTP/ADPCM     - 121.5 milliseconds
; SF/ADPCM      - 121.5 milliseconds
; SF/GSM        - 200 milliseconds
;
;VoipDejitterDelay = 500

; converted from one format to another.

; This variable specifies the maximum number of duplicate text messages
; that may be received from a station before that station is automatically 
; disconnected.  Duplicate text messages can be generated when a number
; of conferences are connected together such that they form a closed loop.
; There is code in thelinkbox which attempts to suppress this "feedback" 
; but the detection logic is less than perfect.  Some versions of thelinkbox
; are known to be unable to suppress loops of certain topologys.  The
; automatic disconnect logic is intended as a safety measure to ensure that
; all available bandwidth is not consumed by a text message feedback loop.
; Although not recommended the automatic disconnection logic can be 
; disabled by setting this variable to zero.
