For Connect Plus, enumerate your list from 1 to the last channel and add the frequency. For Capacity Plus, Rest Channels 1 and 2 will share the same frequency, 3 and 4 will share, 5 and 6 will share, and 7-8 will share, as Capacity Plus counts each RF frequency as two seperate channels, one for each time slot. Capacity Plus Quirk: DSD-FME makes its best effort to follow the rest channel in the event that the sync is lost for longer than the hangtime, but occassionally, DSD-FME will lose the rest channel and will have to hunt through all frequencies to find it again.
Trunking Note4: NXDN TRunking will require a channel map. Please see the example folder for an appropriate channel map. ~NXDN Trunking may also require a channel map file, depending on the system. If it uses a custom range (above 800), then channels will need to be mapped. If channels do not require mapping (have channels below 800) but you are not tuning properly, then please use a channel_map and please report the issue in the issues along with the channels you are tuning and the actual rf frequency so corrections can be made.~ Update: NXDN trunking will not work properly with RTL input method due to the internal handling of the RTL dongle, when using squelch, it will effectively stop all processing (including trunking/tuning) until signal is regained, but squelch is required on NXDN to prevent false sync patterns.

NXDN Trunking Update: NXDN DFA (Direct Frequency Access) has been coded from the v2 documents, so using a channel map may not be required, as long as the DFA is configured with standard values, and not 'system definable' values. This will only work on trunking systems that use DFA (newer systems) in accordance to the v2 CAI document NXDN TS 1-A Version 2.0 September 2016. If the system uses 'system definable' values, then make sure to put the channels in as the 16-bit OFN values for proper tuning.
Channel Map and Group CSV Note: Leave the top line of the channel_map.csv and group.csv as the label, do not delete the line, if no line is there, dsd_import skips the first line so it will not import the first channel or first group in those files if there is something there that isn't a label.
