Works fine for me.

Enter the client name under Search,  choose a frequency range - IE if 
you want VHF channels only enter 145 - 170meg.  I always choose Transmit 
from the Transmit/Receive dropdown box, and chose a district.

I worked for the company that do the C3 contract, what exactly do you 
want to know?

They'll all be analog nationwide.. we did try some digital at C3 Sulphur 
Point (mostly simplex but they had a couple of repeater channels under a 
Ports of Tauranga license) but the crane operators kept complaining so 
we switched them back - I personally never got involved with the issue, 
I mentioned this but noone wanted to listen to me at the time...  I 
suspect the problem was someone was using the same frequency in analog 
in the area which was causing dropped packets which came across as 
garbled data noises.  I had the exact same issue at Fonterra Hautapu 
previously and it sounded like an identical complaint.  That issue I was 
involved in... resolved itself when I removed the analog frequencies - 
We had left them in for transitional reasons, I think a few of the lads 
were using the analog channels as a general chat channel where the boss 
couldn't hear, unaware of the issues they were causing.   I don't 
specifically know, but I think, and from in-house testing, the radios 
were dropping packets when it received both digital and analog voice 
traffic on the same freq, when tuned to a digital channel.  When tuned 
to the same frequency in Analog, everything worked fine with digital 
transmitting.

Cheers,

Richard.
