DSD Plus Fastlane Info in the uk?

[CrazyRach82]

I have now purchased DSD Plus Fastlane, and I am getting to grips with it and trying input the data into the files. However I am struggling with TIII and Cap+ systems.
It seems to be asking for the OTA Channel Number, TIII Area.Site, WACN and TIII Area.Length and I have no idea how to get this information from the data available to me.
In the UK we have nothing like Radio Reference where this information might be readily available, so I wondering if there is a way I can find it from the data that it outputted on the screen.

I am using an RTL-SDR V3.

For instance, this is what I am getting from a TIII system which is quite local:
2025.06.24 18:06:36 SYS_Parms: SysCode=00.000000001.000; Registration req'd; CSC=321

I can work out the system type, the color code, SysCode, I know the Network is T2, and the site is 1.1, but Im struggling with all other information I need to enter.
Any help appreciated,

Thanks

FIrst of all, figure out why you are getting errors (ERR1 / ERR2). Weak signal? Using the wrong bandwidth in FMP24?

Secondly, although DSDPlus can be set up based upon info in the DB, the idea behind DSDPLus is for it to be a sleuthing tool. Use it to gather all of the info.

It would help everyone involved if, while you were parked on a control channel or a Cap+ freq, if you would take a screenshot of your Event Window and Channel Activity Window and post them.

Posting what you posted requires people to manually decode syscodes and things like that, when DSDplus displays the information automatically at the bottom of th Event window.

If you are running a dongle, use FMP24-CC.bat and 1R.bat
If you are running an Airspy, use FMPA-CC.bat and 1R.bat
If you are using an RSP device, use FMPP-CC.bat and 1R.bat

Information like LSNs (which DSDPlus wants) have to be worked out by (a) knowing all of the active frequencies for a site and (b) being able match up voice activity on a particular frequency with the active LSNs shown in the Channel Activity window.

Thank you for your reply. Here is a screen shot of the event window this morning.

You can use the WTR to find the frequencies Affini registered at Ringway. Add those to your DSDPlus.frequencies file

;yoursystemname
TIIIStd, T2, 1.1, 0, 440.0250, 0.0, 0
etc.

Using whatever name you want it to have.
Monitor the control channel (as you are doing) and note the channel grants. From your screenshot you know that at least one of the frequencies in your list is likely to be channel 50. Look at the spoectrum display and watch out for frequencies to become active at the time of those grants. In this system you are lucky because all of the frequencies are within a 2MHz span.
When you have positively identified a channel edit the frequencies file to replace the first '0' to the correct channel number. Repeat until you have the file fettled.
It will take time and patience....I used an online receiver to have a look this morning and the system is mostly encrypted and not particularly active. (The Manchester Airport PLC system is very busy - though somewhat boring it seems - so might make a better system to practice with)
