Scanning ends up in monitoring more than one cell

[sv1]

I am using the 6-channel configuration, to monitor a cell with 1 control channel and 4 traffic channels.

If I start "scanning until first network is found", telive is muting receivers 2-6 until next channel is found.

And then immediately un-mutes all receivers.

If the next channel found is assigned in another cell you end up in "too many changes...... etc"

I think that either all receivers should be tuned to the newly found channel, or unmuted only after new channels of the new cell are discovered.

thanks

it should scan with receiver 1, and when it finds this network it should tune receivers 2-6 from the frequency data in the traffic. maybe there is a problem with this frequency data, or maybe there is another transmitter which uses the same frequency. please verify this from the messages (increasing verbosity will get you more data).

as a workaround disable the automatic tuning. tune the first receiver (either via scanning or just input the frequency manually), and look at the frequency data. using this tune channels 2-6. you will probably find that one of the frequencies sends bad data, so just don't use it.

please report what you've found

Correct!!! and thats the way it is working!!!

I am in an area which is covered with more than one cells. When I tune receiver 1 on the control channel of cell 1, receivers 2-6 are tuned automatically to the correct traffic frequencies of the cell.

Now if I press 'q' to scan for other frequencies ...

1. telive is muting receivers 2-6 and scans with receiver 1
2. during scan telive is finding the control channel of cell 2
3. telive is not waiting to get info in order to tune receivers 2-6 to the new frequencies (of cell 2) and un-mutes receivers 2-6 which have the frequencies of cell 1.

So we end up in a situation where receiver 1 is tuned in control channel of cell 2 and receivers 2-6 in traffic channels of cell 1.

as a workaround disable the automatic tuning. tune the first receiver (either via scanning or just input the frequency manually), and look at the frequency data. using this tune channels 2-6. you will probably find that one of the frequencies sends bad data, so just don't use it.

This is what I am doing right now and works perfectly. Also works good if I disable auto tuning, set all receivers to the new control channel and enable auto tuning again.
