A hotel in Richmond, VA recently switched to what I believe is DMR simplex. I used DSD+ 1.074 with FMP to try to monitor and get information on color code, group, etc. The program didn't respond at all when there were voice transmissions (I saw employees talking into their radios). I checked to make sure the program was working on other DMR transmissions - everything was fine. Here are other things I did, all to no avail:
- changed the PPM correction slightly, even though it looked good where it was
- varied the gain, to make sure the signal wasn't overloading DSD+
- ran DSD+ to only decode DMR (-fr)
- ran DSD+ to decode dPMR (-fm)
- tried using SDR# to feed audio into DSD+
- tried using SDR# with "WinDSD" version 2
The audio definitely sounded like other DMR simplex audio I've heard.
Here's a link to a raw audio sample, recorded using the "R" command in DSD+:

Here's the link to the FCC license for the hotel:

Anyone have ideas? It was frustrating not getting any results, even while seeing people using the radios.
Thanks,
Dave
