I know Capacity plus is not officially supported, but I'm trying to evaluate the extent to which it works.
I'm on the road in Boston for the marathon, where a Cap+ system is used for a substantial portion of the event communications.
I'm wondering if anyone has fooled around with Cap+ enough on the P25RX-I to know whether one needs to enter the LCN frequency once or twice on the DMR tab (I've selected Con+ Control radio button at the bottom). The terminology around LCN/LSN/Ch etc. sometimes gets mixed up across platforms. Here is what I am seeing for the AllComm Hopkinton site, which has 2 frequencies I have entered them on the DMR tab as:
-LCN1 Frequency programmed as 453.0125
-LCN2 Frequency programmed as 451.5000
However, in the console window I can see reference to "LCN3 is rest channel" when a signal is received on 451.5000. My assumption is when the program references LCN3, this is really what I would normally think of as LSN3/Ch3 (which shares LCN2 with LSN4/Ch4, on different slots).
For example, in DSD+ I would expect the event log to show:
"453.0125 is first Cap+ repeater (Ch1 and Ch2)"
and the DSDPlus.frequencies file would be edited to show something like:
Cap+, 1234, 1, 1, 453.0125, 0.0, 0
Cap+, 1234, 1, 3, 451.5000, 0.0, 0
Eventually I will figure this out, but there is almost no voice traffic today and I have some downtime, so I wonder if anyone has advice.
