DSDPlus Is this DMR trunked or not trunked?

so what u see there it says mototrbo thats trunked isn't it?
Ah! this is where you need to focus on the radio service field. Radio service would in most cases be "YG" here if trunked with one notable exception being in the case of CAP+ where it COULD be "IG" or "YG", but if it were indeed CAP+ then DSD+ would note it as such and there would be periodic brief data bursts from a rotating rest channel typically lasting about a half second at a regular interval with a few seconds of silence in between

153.1250 is 3 different emissions (digital modes) Like I said, read A and B again.

8K10F1D P25 Phase I C4FM data

4K00F1W 6.25 kHz voice and data NXDN (Narrow IDAS, NEXEDGE)

7K60FXE 2-slot DMR (Motorola MOTOTRBO) TDMA voice

Yes, I'd bet on networked conventional if you're noting the same traffic broadcast across 4 sites
I have my sds100 scanning nxdn dmr and p25 phase 2 i have my radio shack pro 652 scanning all conventional and p25 phase 1.

Yes it is from 153.125 .. No, it isn't saying that it is Trunked, nor is it saying that it is MotoTRBO. MotoTRBO is Motorola name brand proprietary. It could be MotoTRBO, and DSDPlus would tell you. But the license would not. It is simply indicating DMR emissions. In this case it's a conventional DMR freq with a color code and one or more talkgroups. That's based upon what you monitor in DSDPlus. color code / talkgroup information is not from the license.

Don’t take this wrong, but I would slow down if I was you. I see posts about your Uniden, R/S and DSD all in the same week. I’d get one figured out, get comfortable with it and then move on to the next one. But that’s just me and it’s your life.

Looking at the photos, your weak signal strength and perhaps some interference issues are very likely related to the use of the CATV splitter. To visualize the loss, take a screen shot of FMP24 with your existing setup. Do not shut anything off but disconnect your antenna from the splitter and go directly into the SDR. Compare the two and I would bet you will be surprised that you can get decent signals and not need to over boost the gain.
I would also agree with @KevinC, walk before you run.

Just because an FCC license shows or does not show a certain emission, NFM, NXDN, DMR, P25, doesn't necessarily mean anything.
In St Louis metro, there are a lot of licenses still as NFM and have been digital for years. There are some licensed as DMR and using only analog. There are some licensed with all the emissions and still using analog.

When using NXDN or DMR, some may be licensed as trunked and in many cases, especially capacity plus and conventional networked, they are just licensed as regular FB2 repeaters on a regular license.

So, for the question on this system, I also believe this to be conventional networked, to the effect of simulcasting a (or selected) talkgroup(s) across multiple towers.
