DSDPlus How to tell one site from another apart on a Cap+ with multiple sites having the same freq

[Jay911]

Hey all, wondering if there's a way to get around this. I have several Capacity Plus systems in my area which have several sites all with one single frequency each, and each site has the same frequency - 410.8125. Each site broadcasts a different color code, and I'm sure I have seen the DSD+ FL event log show that the site numbers are announced by the channels as well. I tried to put them all in an entry in the DSDPlus config files so they will get identified as such when I tune to them, rather than just a "Conv" or Cap+ sysid 0 system.

The problem seems to be that DSD+ matches the first site that has that frequency, regardless of which site I'm actually monitoring. I drove around a bit today and hit on three sites, none of which was Site 1 in the system, but the software identified it as site 1 all three times. There wasn't any voice traffic while I was through today, so I don't know if that would have impacted it.

Can anyone think of a way that I can get DSD+ to recognize which site it's actually on and not assume the first site with that frequency is the right one?

Here's some of the relevant data:

2021-05-30 15:08:22  Freq=410.812500  Current network:  10001  AHS PS+M Calgary
2021-05-30 15:08:22  Freq=410.812500  Current site:  10001-1  Okotoks
2021-05-30 15:08:36  Freq=410.812500  DCC=9  10001-1 neighbor:  Site 10001-7  High River
2021-05-30 15:08:36  Freq=410.812500  DCC=9  10001-1 neighbor:  Site 10001-8  Airdrie
2021-05-30 15:08:36  Freq=410.812500  DCC=9  10001-1 neighbor:  Site 10001-10  Vulcan

The first one, CC 5, is the Cochrane site; the site with CC 8 is Airdrie; and the site with CC 9 is Strathmore.

I don't have the raw output of the console window - trying to figure out how to do that with my setup, I am using the "start" command so the >> redirect isn't behaving.
