Understanding Hytera XPT LCN

[JASII]

I am working on a Hytera XPT system near me.

I am trying to determine the LCNs.

It looks like finding the Site Frequency Table will be helpful.

Does anybody know where I can find that?

Get yourself a couple RTL SDR dongles and DSD+ Fastlane. It will display and log all the relevant info including LCN's.

Another alternative (albeit more expensive than the aforementioned suggestion in above post) is to pick up a Uniden x36HP or SDSx00 scanner and utilize the LCN Finder feature

I have a Uniden SDS100, but the LCN Finder feature does not work properly for Hytera XPT.

It will show LCN 1 or LCN 2, but I think I may actually need a three digit LCN for this XPT Hytera system.

I dug around and unearthed this thread...

That relates to Hytera Tier III systems, not Hytera XPT. Apples and oranges.

OK...do you have any recommendations for the OP, oh Great Cornholio?

Highly doubtful. I don't see a single reference to XPT in Notes.txt

Ohhh I didn't realize this. DSD+ decodes a local conventional XPT system for me just fine, it's just multiple linked single frequency sites.

So, what's the difference between Hytera XPT and tier III?

It would be quite helpful to know precisely what system is being discussed here....Mike

I asked the Fastlane devs if their software supports XPT systems to include trunk tracking. The answer was no, but there are still options.

For a local XPT system, I added the system's frequencies to a scanlist file and then I start the tuner app (e.g. FMP24) with the scan option.The tuner hops through the frequencies in the scanlist and DSDPlus decodes the individual channels if there is activity. It isn't a perfect solution, but it works.

I've done the same with the digital traffic on some old Type II sites.
