A group voice application for Reticulum built on LXST, inspired by Mumble. It offers encrypted, realtime group audio over any Reticulum transport capable of >6 kbps. Users can spin up a lightweight server in under 30 seconds with per-room access controls, identity hash allow lists, or password protection.
The system supports dial-in via rnphone and other LXST clients like Sideband and Mesh Chat X. Each room features a configurable LXST codec: Opus for fast links and Codec2 ranging from 700 bps to 3200 bps for slow connections. Available clients include a GUI using Tk and a terminal client.
Installation requires Python 3.11+ and optional push-to-talk hotkeys. Server operators can configure broadcast-only music rooms using Opus CELT profiles, restricting audio to listed identities. The project provides commands for room management, operator actions like kick and ban, and supports systemd installation.
