Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
Sorry to bother you again, but I have some ideas...
:)
Using: v2.7.0-18-g25768edf (25768ed)
Because scanning or listening to OTA Encrypted freqs or networks shows sometimes 000 or fictional numbers in the TGT of the Event view;
and because scanning multiple freqs or networks with the ubiquitous TG 1, for example, can cause confusion which one is being listened to now, using the Groups file is useless in these case, IMHO.
Perhaps a "fictional" TG ID, per frequency, and/or Frequency Name can be shown in the GUI.
For example, if I use the -Y option to Scan a long list of conventional repeaters that are all OTAE, and all the TGs are 0s, then I have no idea who is who.
Perhaps the Channels .csv file (or a different file) can have an additional field that will contain the Channel's Name that will be shown in the Scan Mode row, and in the History view, (if there is a TGT...)
I wonder if there can be optional detachable windows, like in DSDPlus. Each window can show different info: Scan/Current freq window, Call Info Window, Latest Event History Window.
I like to resize and move certain DSDPlus windows to the lower part of the screen, to the Taskbar, and using a 3rd party app named TranslucentTB I am able to view what is going on while I am doing other stuff on the computer, because the Windows Taskbar becomes translucent. (I can send a pic to clarify what I mean, if needed).
I guess this is irrelevant for the excellent Android version.
I probably missed the options to Hold/Avoid/Skip channels/TGs while scanning conventional or while parked on a specific trunked network, on the fly, from the GUI. If I missed them, perhaps their shortcuts can be shown in the GUI. If they are not yet implemented, that would be a great addition (like in DSDPlus or in a Uniden Scanner).
I hope you can have a Scan option that only searches for Voice stream in conventional freqs, and somehow in trunked networks.
A lot of repeaters transmit "junk" and while doing the -Y conventional scan, it stops "by mistake" on that junk. A special Scan option that waits for one second (or less) on a busy channel will continue scanning if no voice stream is present. If a voice stream is present the scan will pause for a user-defined period till the voice stops and the scan will continue.
Same thing with trunked systems, but of course there is a constant "control" stream. So if it is just that boring stream, the scan can continue after a second, or whatever the user wants, but if there is talkgroup activity, the control channel will switch to the voice activity and stay on it till it clears and no more activity is present in the control channel. The scan will continue after a user-defined period that there is only boring "control" activity.
Thank you very much for your wonderful project!
