Hi everyone

Sorry if this has been brought up before, Ive searched but everything I've tried has not worked.
Ive had boatbod's op25 working quiet well with a rtl-sdr v3, however I have not been able to get the alpha tags working.
i have tried changing the file with a text editor and libreoffice calc.
in libre office cal the first colum has the DEC/TGID, second column has the alpha tag I'd like and third column has the priority from 1-3 (I have tried without the third column aswell).
trying in text editor:
TGID<tab>alpha-tag<tab>priority.
I have also tried:
"TGID"<tab>"alpha-tag"<tab>"priority"
the alpha tag file name is "sescfs.tsv" and is listed as such in the trunk.tsv file.
My whitelist file works fine though.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

The trunk tags file has tab-separated fields, and it needs to have Linux line terminations. Use the dos2unix command on it if you're not sure.
I have attached an example of a known good file that contains tgids, tags, and some priorities. (Look at 11501 for example)

Thanks Boatbod!
Used your file and edited it and all alphatags are working perfectly now.. not sure what i was doing wrong, as the files look the same but oh well it works!
