observations and suggestions

Post by newbie01 » Thu Jun 16, 2022 6:05 am

Let me start by saying that I primarily use an opengd equipped radio for scanning.

A local utility company I scan uses insanely long talkgroups that get jumbled up in the last heard time. Would it be possible to have these scroll side to side either automatically or with the left and right keys? (see attached image)

Now these are transmissions on what I think is a tier III repeater or something... I'm still just scratching the surface on this stuff though. Another thing I've noticed is the RX light comes on when on the repeater channel because its data transmissions are near constant. Scanning over the channel seems to pause a little longer, but seems to only hold when someone is using voice communications, but I thought it was interesting, and maybe information that is relevant. (Yes, I know its not a tier 3 firmware etc. etc., but I've heard the utility company communications during storms on service outages and repair status, so this is why I monitor)

Here's what DSD+ captures from the repeater that triggers the 'rx' light.

Code: Select all

Along those same lines I'd really find the ability to view which channel name that the transmission was received on if that is feasible, but idk how that would be handled when scanning a particular zone. I'm sure its been asked before, but is it possible to add a toggle to show 'last heard' duration, channel, and time since transmission, or is that in the future plans?

Hi,

16777215 is "all call".

I will see if it's possible to fit everything.

Thanks :D :D

Could the 'S1' or 'FN' keys be used to display recent activity or last heard while continuing to scan in the background?
