talKKonnect is an open-source customizable, headless, self-contained Mumble Push to Talk ( PTT) client.
It was designed for Linux single-board computers (SBCs) such as the Raspberry Pi and Orange Pi. It works equally well on any reasonably modern Linux distribution.
talKKonnect offers A flexible form factor with an LCD/OLED display, channel and volume control, making it ideal for group communication scenarios. Common use cases include amateur radio enthusiasts, ad-hoc group communications, and replacing expensive commercial intercom systems.

Diving right in? talKKonnect works on a variety of devices and form factors, and even provides pre-built images for use on common Raspberry Pi or similar single board computer (SBC) architectures.
Because talKKonnect was originally created as software to power hardware-based IP communication devices, it has extensive optional functionality and configurability for several common hardware devices. See a full overview of talkKonnect configuration and support details
