You won't see ? populate with LCN numbers until there is actual voice activity on the system. Sounds like there was no voice traffic during the time you were monitoring.

And if you did not already know this, you won't see the frequencies show up on the screen unless you've already properly edited the dsdplus.networks, dsdplus.sites, and dsdplus.frequencies files.

I've only had the dsdplus.frequencies file set long time ago. I did the networks and sites

In network and sites I did this

Network
Con+, 164, [, Powersouth Energy Cooperative]

Site
Con+, 164, 11, "Panama City"
Con+, 164, 28, "Southport"

Is this the correct way?

Con+,164,"Powersouth Energy Cooperative"

yes.

And, I'm not sure why I said it, but i was wrong -- If you want the frequencies to show up, you only have to edit the dsdplus.frequencies file. But might as well add the networks / sites while you're editing :)

Also, if you start monitoring a control channel, the channel window will always show ? on that channel until an actual voice call occurs on one of the control channel's timeslots.

I have changed the [] to " " I'll show a screenshot when done editing.

After the upgrade, the aliases that I assigned for my NXDN talkgroups are gone.

Go into your group and radio files and add 48 or 96 to the end of NEXEDGE entries

What about aliases for nexedge conventional radio id's? They used to work but not after the upgrade. I tried 48 and 96 like for the groups and it did not seem to work/

Any ideas? Thanks

Yeah, like I said earlier the docs need an update. My only other thought on the skips might be to cut your DSD+ reporting back to -v3 on the VC and -v2 (default) on the CC unless you need it for something.

Well, after spending some time to monitor the system, unfortunately the skipping is still present.
I uploaded one more RAW audio file from today so it can be observed. It can be found here: https://mega.nz/fm/K5UlyQ4Y

Mega is overly complicated and requires a goofy login. After establishing an account, if I click on your link I still cannot access the file. Did you delete the file?

Are you using virtual audio cable or are you using FMP ti feed audio to your dsd setup?

I thought you had to use a virtual cable with DSD+ with 2 dongles? How would you do it without the virtual cable? Just wondering.

Options:

-o<port> Output audio TCP port (256-65535)

such as -- START FMP.exe -i1 -o20001

Ok, now I'm confused! I'm using 20001 and 20002, but it's still going thru the virtual cable.

Here's my 4 bat files:

FMP-CC
FMP24 -rc -i1 -o20001 -P0.0 -f935.1875 -wsl5.5

FMP-VC
FMP24 -rv -i2 -o20002 -P55.0 -wsl240.5

CC
DSDPlus -rc -fa -v4 -i20001 -v3 -wsl483.10 -wss100.200 -wel10.1053 -wcl578.232 -wes400.850 >>CC.log

VC
DSDPlus -rv -Pmp3 -i20002 -v3 -wsl627.9 -wss100.200 -wel457.1053 -wcl480.316 -wes400.850 >>VC.log

What would I need to change to eliminate the virtual cable? Thanks!

None of what you've shown there indicates virtual cable usage. You are not using the virtual cable at all in the above environment.

You're absolutely right! I feel so stupid now! I quit using the cable several versions ago when using both the CC and VC bat files. What I do use virtual cable for is when I use Unitrunker and then port the provoice audio into DSD+. Thanks so much for putting up with my stupid questions!

You're welcome. I've asked questions much more stupid than that :)

No it's not delited. I'll upload the files again somewhere else and provide link later. Thanks!

What kind of system are you monitoring p25,nxdn, trbo?

Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

It's VHF NXDN48 trunk system.

-------------------

I uploaded files to another place.
In this one the skipping can be easily observed somewhere around middle of the record: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=00081667868475427353
This one is with pretty intensive traffic and skipping can be observed at any second of the record: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=89784882915415862070
