The proper voice channel setup for Smartnet can be found in smartnet_example.json. Specifically the following parameters: demod_type="fsk4" filter_type="widepulse" If that's not getting you good digital audio, try changing filter_type="rc" and see if that helps.
I'm actually a little surprised that demod_type="cqpsk" works at all for digital audio since it is supposed to follow the P25 Phase 1 specs which mandate C4FM/FSK4 encoding. The problem is, I've never seen an actual Motorola spec, just TIA-102 standards docs.
Let me know whether changing widepulse makes any difference. Graham

Hi,
Is there a reason why the smartnet NB FM demodulator is only enabled for fsk4 channels but not for cqpsk channels? See https://github.com/boatbod/op25/blob/master/op25/gr-op25_repeater/apps/p25_demodulator_dev.py#L531
I'm listening to https://www.radioreference.com/db/sid/861 and with fsk4 I get distorted digital audio but good FM, and with cqpsk I get good digital audio but no FM. Patching up that line to also allow cqpsk makes things work.
Is this an oversight or have I configured something wrong?

Yeah I tried with the default settings (fsk4/widepulse) first and that gave me very choppy audio. For some reason changing to cqpsk made it work. BUT fsk4/rc also seems to work perfectly. Solved, thanks!
Do you know if your Smartnet system is simulcast? Widepulse (for simulcast) increases the filter bandwidth vs the rc filter used by standard P25.

No idea. Is there a way I can tell? Otherwise I only know what's listed on RR.
