700MHz confusion #256

Closed rpdale closed 5 years ago

rpdale commented 5 years ago

I have the system running on one SDR monitoring 800MHz channels at https://openmhz.com/system/mpscs

On the MPSCS tower of interest, the 700MHz freqs are 769.70625 | 770.70625 | 771.38125

I added a second SDR with this info (matching serial number 1 other than the error rate based on gqrx)

It is monitoring the 700MHz channels but here is the output:

It's recording the call just fine (?) and then when the call completes, it is being deleted because the call duration 0 seconds long. All 700MHz frequencies show up this way.

Disregard- I ran gqrx again and I had the wrong box checked and was measuring the error on the same SDR both times :) Made sure to select S/N 2 and found the error was -32000 and not +750.
