Broadcastify Calls

[firebal]

I have a few questions about Broadcastify Calls that are more likely directed to the admins but I will put it here in case others can answer.

1. Is there any plans to build functionality into the current Broadcastify App or to create a new one? The mobile site while useable, I believe it is wonky.

2. What is the best way to contact the feed provider? I know that on regular streams you can click a button to sent a note to the feed provider. I maybe missing it on the Calls platform or it is not yet there.

3. Is there a way to provide two feeds to make up for missed radio transmissions? (May be too much) The county near me. Baltimore County has a very busy P25 system and I have noticed that sometimes transmissions I can receive on my own are missed by the Broadcastify Calls Platform.

Thanks,
firebal

2 - There is currently no functionality to view who hosts a node, and thus no way to contact them

3 - Unlike traditional BCFY feeds, duplication is actually encouraged with Calls.

As to why you hear things that aren't in Calls there could be a couple of reasons. The person providing the calls system has to have enough recorders available to save every call going on at once. For example one of my local busy systems can have about 20 active talkgroups at once but my computer is only set to record 12 because of the CPU and SDR limits. If the system has multiple zones the other reason could be wherever the recorder is might be on a different zone than what you are listening to on the scanner and there might be different talkgroups active on each zone, some might overlap, some might not.
