I wanted to explore this functionality. I looked in all the notes that came with DSD+FL and searched those text files for the word 'survey' which brought up nothing. I am now asking the community to help me set up a survey list for FMP24 and if anything needs to be done with the survey.cfg file in the DSD+ FL file. I am running 3.303

Thank You

I have that much but it says nothing to survey when I press the Y active key. I have a blank FMP24.SurveyList made but not knowing what needs to be put in it.

Ok, gotcha, here is my surveylist file --

; FMP24 spectrum survey list
;
; use to detect RF activity on specified bands
;
; specified center frequencies are typically spaced exactly 2.0 MHz apart
;
; lines after <EOF> are ignored
;
; for best performance, FFT size should be set to 16 in FMP24.cfg

Oh now I see what to do. 2MHZ spacing 16 FFT size. thanks!

its surverying....

There you go. In Survey.exe, if you've been surveying more than one 2 MHz strip, use the left/right keys to move up and down the spectrum. I vaguely recall that pressing '?' will display a list of active keys.
