Watching/listening to a Phase 2 system, for one particular talkgroup, the timeslot is represented as 'S1o'. It's pretty clear the talkgroup has been assigned to Slot 1. What does that 'o' represent? I don't see that on any other talkgroups. Thanks!!

Could you post a screen shot please?

Oh, shoot... I just figured it out...

What I'm seeing is the truncation of the second-to-last line on the terminal... with a bit more traffic on the system than there was late last night, I'm seeing:

TDMA Slot
TDMA Slo
TDMA Sl

With the default font, 'l' looks a lot like '1' and I was interpreting 'Sl' as "Slot 1" 8*P

Sorry for the confusion...

In my defense, the particular talkgroup that caught my eye was a bit unique to begin with - it had started out as a patch to an analog conventional repeater and was only ever FDMA on the trunk. Recently, it's been switched over to TDMA full-time, and I got it in my head that the 'o' might have been a flag for something I wasn't familiar with.

Thanks again for all the hard work that goes into op25!
