AllScan products are designed, assembled and tested in San Diego, California. Prices and specifications are subject to change, and are often adjusted due to variability in manufacturing and materials costs. Shipping prices shown are for the US. For outside US or orders with multiple items I'll quote the actual shipping cost.
Products Overview
AllScan products support a wide range of application types including Radio-Over-IP (ROIP), digital mode and data communications, remote rig control, and Software-Defined-Radio (SDR). AllScan products comprise the following general categories:
- USB Radio Interfaces (URIs) - these use a widely-supported C-Media CM108B USB Controller IC
- USB Communications Interfaces (UCIs) - these interface to a mic and speaker
- Radio Modules - these consist of a URI with integrated radio(s), and are fully assembled and tested, ready to plug into a MiniPC or RPi you provide
- Fully configured and tested Nodes, using HT(s), a mobile radio, or a radio-less interface. These include a MiniPC or RPi
- Accessories including Microphones, Speakers, MiniPCs, RPi's, Cables, Adapters, etc.
See the main page for links to my How-To Guides covering the design and construction of nodes using HTs, mobile radios, and radio-less interfaces.
Node MiniPC/RPi Options
AllScan nodes by default include a refurbished Dell Wyse 3040 MiniPC with 2GB RAM, 8GB eMMC and Ethernet (no WiFi). Upgrade options on any node are as follows:
- Dell Wyse 3040 with built-in OEM dual-band WiFi module & dual antennas - Add $40
- Raspberry Pi5 2GB RAM, 32GB SDCard, 5V 27W RPi AC Adapter, and EDATEC aluminum case - Add $85
- Laptops, Netbooks, Tablets and other x64 devices can also be used, contact me for details
Advantages of Cross-Band Full-Duplex Nodes
AllStarLink is a full-duplex system and only cross-band full-duplex nodes can fully support its intended features. Full-duplex nodes provide the following advantages with AllStar:
- Full-duplex nodes are always receiving and can be keyed up any time. Half-duplex nodes cannot be keyed up when they are transmitting, making it more difficult to key up a remotely connected repeater system until some time after the courtesy tone or until a carrier drop – which often doesn't happen on busier nets/QSOs.
- Full-duplex nodes are always transmitting when receiving and keyed up, enabling you to hear what's on the remote system (if using a cross-band full-duplex client radio, or if you briefly unkey to check the channel), and if there's a break, comment, double, interference or other issue on the system you'll hear it and can respond appropriately. This greatly improves communications efficiency, interactivity, and situational awareness.
- ASL's
duplex=3setting does not repeat your own audio back to you and thus enables a cross-band full-duplex client radio to work like a full-duplex speakerphone with no echoes or feedback. This is a powerful additional feature provided by AllStar that few if any standalone repeaters are capable of.
Cross-Band Full-Duplex Node Notes
- A cross-band full-duplex node with
duplex=3in rpt.conf is not a repeater. AllScan nodes are primarily intended for use as personal nodes – not as repeaters. A cross-band full-duplex node can be used as a cross-band repeater by settingduplex=2, but this is only useful for nodes that are in fact used by multiple local RF users - Wouxun KG-UV8D Plus, KG-UV9D Plus, KG-935H and KG-Q10H HTs support cross-band duplex very well and are highly recommended for use as client radios with cross-band full-duplex nodes. They support this by default with no special settings required. Do not enable any cross-band repeat function
See the Full-Duplex Communication Benefits section in my How-To Guides for more details.

USB Radio Interfaces
AllScan URIs provide outstanding audio quality, RFI-resistance and cost-effectiveness, and support AllStarLink, EchoLink, DVSwitch, Zello, Winlink, VARA, FreeDV, DigiPi, APRS, DireWolf, Fldigi, FT8, other ROIP/data communications apps, and interfacing of Win/Mac/Linux PCs and mobile devices to HTs, portable and mobile radios for use with remote rig control, digital modes, packet radio, etc. Comprehensive LEDs show USB host Status, COS, PTT, and ADC Clip state. HTs connect with standard K1 2.5mm & 3.5mm TRS cables, the URI125, 160 and 201 have a Mini-DIN-6 jack, and the URI201 provides a DB9 jack. AllScan URI Configuration Settings
AllScan URIs provide the most comprehensive RFI/EMI filtering available, with separate USB/Digital/Analog ground planes and power lines, ferrite beads and bypass caps on all I/Os, and RC filters on the Analog supply. The URI201 adds audio isolation transformers and switch-configuration options supporting various signal and grounding configurations. The URI125 PCB measures only ~2"x2" – not much larger than a CM108 sound fob but with far superior RFI/EMI-rejection and with all I/O lines available on through-hole header pads. URIs can also be provided without an enclosure or cables at a discount, contact me for details.
With proper cabling and ferrite placement AllScan URIs typically provide 55+dB Signal-To-Noise (SNR), but SNR can be significantly reduced in some nodes if the radio is powered from the same power supply as the MiniPC/RPi. This is solved in the URI142, 160, ANH85-M and ANF101-M with a 0.25Ω–2mF RC filter in the radio power supply circuitry, in the URI145 with a well-filtered DC-DC converter and highly optimized grounding configuration, and in the URI201 with isolation transformers. If using an RPi5 with URIs that provide a radio power output be sure to use the official RPi PD-capable 27W power supply, or update the Pi5 config settings as described here.
AllScan URIs with K1 jacks support detection of DC bias voltage present on the speaker audio line of RT85 and many other HTs when a signal with valid CTCSS tone is present. To confirm if an HT you have will support this, check the DC voltage on the 2.5mm jack (Tip=RxAudio, Sleeve=Gnd) with a voltmeter, with the volume control set to ~20%. If ≥1VDC when a valid signal is present, and this voltage remains stable the entire time that squelch is open, it should be compatible. AllScan URIs that provide a 5V radio power output will support Retevis RT85's and similar models from Baofeng, RadTel, TYT, etc., but some models (typically those with color LCDs) will not Tx on <~6V. To confirm if an HT you have will Tx on 5V just connect it to a 5VDC power source and see if it turns on and transmits OK. If not the URI145 can be used which can provide 5-9V. COS on the 2.5mm Ring terminal is also supported.
URIs with a DC power out jack for HTs include a power cord with 5.5x2.1mm plug and wires that are very easy to solder to the HT battery contacts; HTs can be attached to these URIs with 3M 9088 Acrylic mounting tape which is very strong but comes off cleanly if needed (Detail Image). The ANH85-M and ANF101-M have battery terminal contactors specifically for RT85s and include mounting hardware thus no soldering or mounting tape is needed.

USB Communications Interfaces
AllScan USB Communications Interfaces plug in to any computer running AllStarLink, DVSwitch, HamVOIP, EchoLink, Zello or other ROIP, SDR, or remote rig control applications, and provide Hi-Fi audio quality, smooth dynamics, and an overall sound equal to or better than even the best radios. These do not include a mic or speaker. Notes:
- Speaker output power is rated at ~2.5W into 4Ω and ~1.5W into 8Ω. For mobile use or where maximum volume is needed I recommend using a 3-4Ω speaker or 2× 8Ω speakers connected in parallel
- A bridge configuration audio amp is used, therefore the speaker '–' line (3.5mm jack sleeve) should not be grounded
- Headphones can be used with the Speaker Out jack but may require a 3.5mm TS (mono) to TRS (stereo) adapter, or the Line Out / User I/O jack can drive 32Ω headphones. The UCI150 and UCI120 ≥v1.5 provide an internal switch that configures the Line Out jack to be connected directly to the CM108 audio outs (pre-fader) or to the stereo volume control output (post-fader). The Line Out on other UCI models is not affected by the Volume control
AllScan UCIs provide enhanced filtering of the mic power line to ensure the lowest possible noise with any type of mic. The UCI80 has a preset mic gain but the CM108 mic gain can be easily adjusted in the ASL rxmix setting or OS sound driver or other application settings. Other UCIs additionally provide a 0/10/20dB mic gain switch and gain adjustment potentiometer.

Ordering Information, Payment and Shipping Options
To place an order email david at allscan.info and let me know which product(s) and option(s) you'd like to go with and any other setup/configuration details needed or questions you have. Be sure to include your mailing address in your email, or state that your PayPal or QRZ address should be used and you have confirmed that is correct. I can then confirm I have everything in stock and estimated ship date. Most orders ship within 1 business day.
NOTE: If at any point you do not see a response to an email within 12-24 hours be sure to check your spam folder. I usually respond to emails within a few hours and almost always within 12 hours, but unfortunately some of the larger email providers such as GMail and Microsoft often route things to spam (even if you just sent me an email and thus my email is in your sent addresses). If you still see no response after 24 hours please also email my other account chc_media at yahoo.com.
PayPal can be sent to paypal.me/allscan or david at allscan.info, or Venmo or Zelle to chc_media at yahoo.com. (For Zelle be sure to use "instant" transfer.)
Most orders ship by USPS Ground and USPS picks up from me 6 days per week. Orders can be upgraded to USPS Priority Mail on request.

If ordering a product that includes a configured node computer please provide the following:
- Name, Call Sign, Email Address, Phone Number, and mailing address. (Will not be provided to any 3rd party.)
- AllStar Node Number to use, password defined for that node number in the ASL portal Node Settings (not your user password), and the IAX port number to use (4569 by default). NOTES:
- The node number must not be in use on any other nodes. You can set up additional node numbers in the ASL Portal. If you have only a single 5-digit node# you can extend it there to support ten 6-digit node#s, and it's better to do this now so that you won't have to change node#s later.
- Node passwords are usually 12 hex digits eg. 123456abcdef, must contain only letters, numbers, underscore and dash characters, and must be at least 6 characters in length.
- The IAX port number is set on the Server Settings section of the ASL Portal. A new server entry should be created there and then in the Node Settings section assign the node number to the new server.
- Please provide the above info in plain text (no screenshots).
- Confirm if you need any other ASL options or settings enabled (AllScan and Allmon3 are included by default). If you'd like EchoLink to be enabled, download and fill out this echolink.conf file as noted in the file comments and email to me.
- WiFi is easy to manage by plugging in an Ethernet cable and going to the ASL web management page at http://node[NODE#].local:9090. Or I can preconfigure WiFi in which case let me know the SSID, password & password type (eg. WPA2) for your WiFi network(s) (plain text only, no screenshots).
Note for ebay users: Ebay fees are quite high and you can save 10-15% off the prices there by ordering direct and using no-fee payment services such as venmo or zelle. Email me for details.
Terms & Conditions
- I am not responsible for packages after they have been given to the shipping company and the tracking number successfully scanned. In rare cases (<~2% of orders) tracking data and delivery is sometimes delayed by up to ~2 weeks. I've been doing e-commerce since 1997 and in that time less than ~0.2% of orders shipped have been lost or damaged.
- USPS guarantees only that packages will be scanned on delivery and thus more detailed tracking data is often not available prior to delivery. This is why they use the term "Delivery Confirmation Number" rather than "Tracking Number". USPS picks up from me 6 days per week, and once I have emailed you your Delivery Confirmation number the package will in fact have been picked up by USPS usually within 1 day. If the tracking link does not show any updates online please allow 1 week before emailing questions about tracking. I do not have any additional information available beyond what is shown on the tracking link provided.
- Insurance can be added to any shipment on request but I cannot guarantee that in the unlikely event of loss or damage that the shipping company will honor and pay out the claim. Because ~99.8% of orders are delivered without issue I do not by default add insurance to packages. Even in cases where the shipping company loses or damages a package they often make it difficult to file a claim and be compensated.
- The signature required option can be added to any shipment on request, and is automatically added on orders over $600. If you have had any issues with reliably receiving mail and packages in the past you should probably request this option.
- INTERNATIONAL shipments only: Prices to ship outside of the US have significantly increased in 2025. International buyers can expect shipping prices of approximately US $25-30 for packages under 1 Lb (all URI and UCI products are under 1 Lb), and $30-40+ for shipments over 1Lb. You can check shipping prices at USPS.com. I can also ship UPS which can be more cost-effective in some cases, but as UPS does not provide free pickup I add a $10 handling fee for UPS. The tracking link provided with USPS international shipments may only provide tracking within the US. Once delivery has been made to the USPS/GlobalPost international hub additional tracking information can then be obtained at goglobalpost.com/tracking/. I do not have any additional info than what is shown on the tracking links.
- AllScan products are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for 1 year after the original sale date. All products are tested and confirmed working before shipping. If a product needs to be returned for service please contact me by email as soon as possible. Customer is responsible for return shipping. If a defect in materials or workmanship is found the product will be repaired, replaced, or refunded at my discretion.
- With exception of the 1-year limited warranty on materials and workmanship, AllScan products are sold "as-is" and "as available" without any express or implied warranties of any kind (including, but not limited to, any implied warranties of merchantability, non-infringement, title, accuracy, or fitness for a particular purpose, and any warranties arising from course of performance, course of dealing, course of conduct, or usage of trade) or conditions of any kind, whether express or implied or statutory. In no event shall AllScan or its trustees, employees, agents, licensors or suppliers be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, consequential, or punitive damages or losses of any kind (including, but not limited to, any procurement of substitute goods or services; loss of use, business, goodwill, data, revenue, or profits; reasonable royalties; business interruption; or other intangible losses) however caused and on any theory of liability, whether in contract, strict liability, tort (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise, arising in any way out of the use of, or inability to use, the products, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the products or your interactions with AllScan, even if advised of the possibility of such damage or loss, and notwithstanding the failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy. You acknowledge that these limitations are reasonable, that they are an essential element hereof, and that absent such limitations, AllScan would not make the products available to you or enter into these terms and conditions. You remain responsible for all legal compliance with respect to your usage of the products.
