I am considering it, but I went the whole way and too it to a better
box, better UPS, better internet connectivity, all in one so I should
be good on that front. My thought is that if that nook next to our Riv
box is not wired to the riv box properly for testing now, I will look
the obrx on that nook to the obtx on it in jack and send the audio
right back to where it came from for latency evaluation. This leaves
some latency untested but that same latency would also exist for the
linphone option.
If I have to I will set up an old pc and replace the pi. I have enough
old pcs, I am not sure any of them are new enough though.

Is there anywhere in your chain where the home DJ is
listening to the
studio audio, sending vocals back to the studio where it is mixed with
the audio the DJ was "talking to" and then goes out over the air. That
is basically the situation I am concerned with. With some leeway if I
restrict the use to remote voice tracking but it would be nice to use
this setup for live remotes and even shows if the latency can get down
enough. (It is early and I am tired and may not be thinking clearly
right now and may be wishing for the impossible. Need to think more
about it.)
At present we have no way of listening to final audio output, it is on
the cards but we need a cable plugged in :-) They can listen to FM.
All our presenters mix everything at home and send the final audio for
trx to the studio, in essence they are a studio in there own right, it
seemed the easy option
What is this bit below about? Can you give a bit more
info on this use?
* To local studio monitors
Just so presenters can hear the final feed that goes out live, can be
useful, turns off in the studio when a mic is opened to stop feed back
IIRC, I did not know about njconnect . Are you getting it from:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/njconnect/
https://github.com/radiganm/njconnect
Or somewhere else?
I got it via git clone and built it.
