I know it's off topic but I'm using Butel ARC XT Pro software with a BCT15X scanner. It's logging the frequency but not the PL. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Marvin N5RKW

You missed my post to you where I told you when you use the ARC-XT logger, to make sure you check the box for "log subaudible tones".
That's the fix. It's under the "Log Settings/Misc" tab. Check the box. ;)

Back to this topic.
A few new CHP logs. Same QTH as above.
44.6600 167.9 Black - South Sacramento
45.0200 192.8 Orange - Baldwin Park
42.4400 131.8 Pink - San Francisco
42.1200 131.8 Bronze - Oakland
42.4600 167.9 Black Monterey
