Once you bring your gain down (G/g) to a good level, the signals will be more obvious. Lower the gain until the green and white signal lines are around the 2nd horizontal blue line. That is a good starting point.
You have what looks like a NXDN signal lurking off to the right in your pic. I would try the second frequency in the above list.
However, tuning to that spike only starts your adventure. When you get a good signal, you will see activity in the Channel Activity window. You then need to gather info and populate the various files that tell the program the frequencies to tune to and the talkgroups you want to hear or not. It is not difficult but it does require some patience.
With a new system, I try to edit files in some kind of order, Network, Site, Frequencies so I don't overlook one and my data is consistent.
So your edited Network file would have an entry like
NEXEDGE48, 492, "Comm NW"
Site file might have:
NEXEDGE48, 492, 4, "Chehalem"
and to start, the Frequency file has a first entry of the following (with this system, there will be one line for each frequency):
NEXEDGE48, 492, 4, ?, 451.15625, 0.0, 1
Your job will be to determine what channel numbers are used for each of those frequencies. That info will pop up on the Channel Activity and the Event Log windows. You have to match the activity with the channel used. So, for example, if you see traffic on Channel 3 and there is a spike at the same time near one of the frequencies in the list, you could try entering that as the channel number in the frequency list. Just keep going until all the licensed frequencies are figured out or you are not missing any conversations.
