Hello I am kinda new to DSD+ Fastlane, I’ve been using it for a little over a month. I been working on aliases for talkgroups and radios, but I was wondering if there’s a way to create alias for the site frequencies that appear in each hit. For example I’m monitoring a p25 system and 460.0625 comes up on a hit I’d like it the say “Ohio County Simulcast”, or if 453.175 comes up I want it to say Weirton. Is this something that’s possible? Creating aliases for control frequencies.

Not sure what you mean. If you're monitoring a site on a P25 system, system/site information is already known via the .networks and .sites files (assuming you've populated them) and displayed in the DSD+ event log window. Also, I don't know in which windows or where in them you want to display channel aliases. So the following may or may not be useful:


If you're using one of the FMPx programs to tune a dongle, you can add your own "licensee" records to the FMPx CSV file(s).

For example, if I manually tune to 770.53125, FMPx and DSD+ both display information because I have this line in a custom CSV file that FMP24 loads:

770.53125, 0, "Toronto Public Safety", "East", 43.7283, -79.2976, "", ""

The required format is shown at the top of the Canada.csv file:

; TXfreq, RXfreq, Licensee, Location, Latitude, Longitude, first emission mode, second emission mode

I’m referring to the channel on the event log pic to follow. I’d like to be able to have a site name instead of the frequencies
