DSDPlus FMP24 frequency range scan

[BorisG]

Hello,

I have a simple question,
Is it possible to perform a range scan that I will define for example 130mhz-150mhz via FMP24? Or is there another software that can be link to DSD+ and scan a range?

Thank you.

Yes! Read the "Notes" and reference: Survey.exe, Survey.cfg, and FMP24.SurveyList. Otherwise, you can setup a scan list of specific
frequencies and modes much akin to a regular scanner.

Thanks,
I'm not interested in displaying the spectrum results graphically (survey),
I want to scan just like Scanlist but in the way I set the range and not the list.

I was pretty sure that's what you were looking for, but AFIK, no such feature has ever been implemented in DSDPlus FL.
Such a feature would require a mechanism to scan in channelized steps that varies across the spectrum in accordance with
specific modes and licenses.

I could not understand so much about the license

In any case it is not possible?

Not possible with FMP24 The license/mode remark was in reference to channel center frequency steps) that would need to be implemented
for scanning a range of frequencies. IE: you wouldn't be to stop the scan to check for activity on odd ball increments in between channels
such that you off frequency for any given mode and authorized emission type.

I emailed DSDPlus with this request a while back, to be able to scan a user defined range. In the meantime I use Sdr# with DSDPlus for ranges, and FMP24 for preset freqs via its scanlist feature.

I wouldn’t hold my breath. There's been zero updates since July 2022 and it smells like DSDPlus FL is on its way to abandonware land.
