While using DSD+, I am unable to get it to display the Key ID for a Basic Privacy DMR transmission. I am using -v4. With these settings, I can decode the Key ID on my P25 transmissions but not my DMR transmissions. For DMR, it only says Enc Group Call and Alg=BP but no Key ID.

What am I doing wrong?

I dont think the radios have a Key ID setting for BP. BP is radio wide if I remember correctly....... Also, there are only 255 possible keys for that Algo. TT

The radios don't have a Key ID per se, but yes, there are 255 options. I read somewhere where somebody was decoding a Key ID on DMR, specifically BP. Maybe they were mistaken and actually decoding EP.

I am pretty sure the Key ID on DSDPlus is not related to the actual key but is more of an index or reference number. If a user has 2 keys they can call them key 1 and 2 but that is not part of the actual key. You could even have multiple key #1 on a large network as each user could create their own key if they were allowed.
