Hahahaha I know about LCN's but not LSN's.You will learn all about LCN's and LSN's in the next session
DSDPlus A question about how to configure additional freqs/systems

What happens when you have a site that does not use a "RAN?" This site in Fall River, Mass. another NXDN user shows THIS:
Now that I know how to set up a NXDN system, this adds confusion. It is "RDC communications network 178"
| Site RAN: | (* Any) |
|---|
(* Any) = RAN Search
it is not known, So it's basically a blank or placeholder until a specific RAN can be verified, in Trunked systems the RAN is generally the same as the Site Number 1,2,3

OK not sure how to deal with this one, but looking at the coverage map I might be in range of this one. So if I wanted to set this one up I could just LEAVE OUT the RAN#? I did find a DMR system that is HUGE and covers a lot of area. But I will wait till tomorrow or later to ask questions about how to go about setting the files up for that. It looks like DMR doesnt use "RAN" numbers. Some sites dont have control channels either.
I caught my mistake and changed the whole post to "Good Question"
you're going to need more time with that DMR.

This is getting funny..
NXDN RAN = DMR Color Code = P25 NAC = Conventional PL/DCS
Setting up DMR does not require a Color Code to be known, nor RAN in NXDN as far as DSD+ is concerned, It'll just tell you what it is. HOWEVER, If programming a scanner or radio it can make a difference depending on how close adjacent frequencies and users are and how the radio works. It's good to know. And it needs to be correct if used at all.

Haha I tried to set it up but got errors in RED in the event log about "missing fields"(* Any) = RAN Search

RR calls it "System ID".
Re your PM'd questions - The changes you're making via the DSD+ menus aren't "sticking" because you're using a batch file that always requests other settings. I assume you're left clicking on the 1R.bat file to run DSD+ (which is the right way to do it). If so, right click on 1R.bat and select Edit. That should open up the file in Notepad. If you don't want per-call audio recordings, delete the -Pwav text. To block log file generation, delete the >>1R-log.txt text. -E only applies to log files, so it can go as well. To block writing to the big DSDPlus.wav file, add -O NUL
Your final result should look something like this:
DSDPlus -r1 -T -i20001 -O NUL
Save your changes and close Notepad. Delete the DSDPlus.wav/.srt files, the 1R-log.txt file and the 1R-Record folder.

Show your work...
OK Thanks for that very helpful info....got the 1R batch file all edited. I made a batch file to start the whole thing but I know its full 'o errors. Take a look at it here:
@Echo off
start %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe
cd dsdfree
start 1R
start FMP24-CC
@Echo on
exit /s
The "exit /s" is supposed to make the CMD screen turn off after file runs but it doesnt. The rest of file seems to run ok but I wanted a quicker way to start the programs instead of having to keep going in the dsd folder and clicking on the 1R & FMP24-CC files to get it going.
I deleted all the editing but I will try again and post errors......the errors referred to missing fields in certain lines of the files I edited. Here is the system: RDC Communications - Network 178 Trunking System, Various, Multi-State - Scanner Frequencies
The SITE I want is "009 Fall River"
The Fall River site data is here: Fall River Site Details (RDC Communications - Network 178)
Again, I am thinking the missing "RAN" caused problem, but I did substitute the site number, 9 in the lines in both "Networks" and "Sites" files in DSD folder. This is the line I used: NEXEDGE48, 9, "Fall River" in "SITES" & "SITELOADER" files and NEXEDGE48, 9, RDC Communications in the "Networks" file.
Frequencies put in the freq files. I can try to assemble it again and see what happens.

Probably because you started a copy of cmd.exe and it's just sitting there waiting for you to tell it what to do.
The echo on/off doesn't do anything useful either.

The networks file doesn't deal with sites or site numbers. It wants the network ID (178), not a site number.
None of the files care about RAN.
OK I got it, I deleted @ Echo and the cmd.exe line now works perfectly! Been 20+ years since I did DOS batch files.....forgot all that stuff.
I redid the data for this system and still error in "Event log" saying "No channel data found for NEXEDGE site 178-1 Fall River". But I had a number missing and fixed it so it is working.
