I just recently set up a conventional source to feed calls using SDR trunk. I also use SDR Trunk to feed the same sources to a broadcastify feed. Looking at the logs I see that I an transmitting the Broadcastify feeds but not sending data for calls. I have assigned and confirmed the aliases are assigned to both feeds.

It appears that your reference to “conventional source” means an analog radio channel rather than digital. SdrTrunk will feed that to a traditional BCFY feed but SdrTrunk will only upload audio from a digital source to the Calls platform. I hope that I am correct and that this helps.

it is possible to upload a single analog frequency to the calls platform but this requires different software than SdrTrunk.

BTW, I found Plymouth/Terryville under Litchfield County, CT in the database.

SDR trunk will do conventional freq now with their latest release. It can now tune to analog conventional frew. Turns out when I set up the Calls application I was going to use a different encoding app and switched to SDRTRunk. Looks like there's dependencies needed that they have to match.

Correct, sdrTrunk will do analog freqs. However, the Calls platform depends on talkgroup id’s etc. that only exist with digital channels. I remember reading somewhere that you can make an alias assigning a talkgroup number to an analog channel but that isn’t going to easily get all the transmissions.
