One of the Calls nodes I provide has, for whatever reason, started having issues staying locked onto the control channel. Eventually I will go out to the site and reposition the antenna to fix the issue but given that the node is a ways from my location, it may be a while before I am able to do so. The control channel appears to fluctuate in strength rather than staying steady. Whenever it briefly fades down into the noise every few minutes, trunk-recorder almost immediately starts trying to retune to different control channels. Since there are a lot of frequencies on this site, this processes takes a while (around a minute), and thus transmissions get missed given that this is a very busy site.

Is there any way to tell trunk-recorder not to retune control channels? I tried explicitly entering only one control channel frequency in the config file, but trunk-recorder must internally keep track of the voice frequencies as candidate alternate control channels and still tries every one of them.

Any suggestions? Just trying to minimize missed transmissions until I can get out to the site.
