I'm not quite sure about the definition of a system-controller, but
I need a gateway into the trunked radio net (like an ISDN card which
provides a gateway into the telephone network), so that an asterisk
client should be able to dial into another trunked radio unit.

After some evaluation I started my implementation based on chan_oss.c,
because the radio gets connected to asterisk by an OSS soundcard anyway
(BTW, I'd *REALLY* like to use the app_rpt PCI radio interface card
which would be *PERFECT* for my needs, but I'm unable to contact an
app_rpt developer as every email I'd figured out doesn't work. If anybody
knows how to contact Jim Dixon or another developer from the app_rpt
project, I'd like to know !)

Currently I'm trying to embedd my MAP27 driver (the protocol which
controls the radio via a serial port) into my chan_oss.c spin-off.
I still need to figure out a mechanism for PTT from the client...
