What does this mean?
"TUNER UNAVAILABLE - CHANNEL GRANT UNKNOWN SERVICE OPTIONS"
I am already running two sdr sticks. Do I need a third?f

I am monitoring Baltimore County P25 if that helps.

Thanks

Hmmm is this my bandwidth?
"Sample Rate [2400000.0] providing [96] channels at [25000.0] Hz each"
I did not know I could change it.

You will need 3 RTL-SDR's. At that sample rate, each covers ~2.4MHz of spectrum. The channels from the system you are monitoring spans 860.9625 - 854.0125 = 6.95MHz.

Should it be fine if I split one of the antennas to be used by two of the dongles?

I am not sure if I understand the question.

I have one antenna split and shared by 4 dongles with simple cable 1 to 2 splitters X 2. Individual mileage may vary but I don't see any determinable negative effect by doing so. The signals I use are pretty strong anyway for my purposes.

When conditions are right I trunk systems 62 km away - across water I admit.

Ok that was more what I was asking if it possible to split an antenna with 2 or more dongles.

Thanks
