I just thought I would say that I am very pleased with DSD. My area has 3 - P25 freqs that I missed monitoring with my analog only scanners.
My radio I am using (ICOM Q7A), which I don't have any sort of computer interface to what freq is on so I couldn't do alpha tags, so....
I have downloaded the source and added a tweak. It looks at the source field, which the first 3 char seem to be the NAC. In my area, the 3 departments I monitor have different NACs, so I just made DSD map them. This translates 2190400 or whatever to "City Dispatch", etc. Lastly, I run DSD in cygwin and so I made DSD update the terminal title with the newly mapped Alpha Tag.
End result, OddCast can read the title of that window and add alpha tags.
I was curious, anyone else out there doing something like this and wanna share ideas? Right now these changes are sorta hard coded, but with some time I could make it just read a config file to do the mapping. Anyone out there interested in something like that?
