Hi Simon,
One thing I'd like to see added is Canadian RDS callsign & location decoding similar to that done for the USA (which is AWESOME by the way - makes quick IDs so easy). A while back I sent you the Canadian algorithm. I hope you find time to add it some day.
Cheers,
William.

Hi,
Send me that again by direct email, I now have time to look at this. Problem would be at the border...

Re: Canadian RDS : automatic callsigns & location decoding
Will do. There would be no problem at the border as USA and Canadian PIs don't overlap at all, even the network codes.

OK, Send me stuff and I'll need a recording (IQ).

Where does console pull the info from for the city associated with the decoded call letters from the PI code for US stations? One of my locals, 107.3 WKVB, still displays as "Fort Matlida, PA" which is where the WKVB call letters were until a little over 2 years ago.

Re: Canadian RDS : automatic callsigns & location decoding
It's a big database - there's an algorithm for converting PI Code to Call for US stations. When I add the Canada support I'll check for an update.AJ1L wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 11:22 pm Where does console pull the info from for the city associated with the decoded call letters from the PI code for US stations?

FWIW see: https://picodes.nrscstandards.org/fs_pi ... cated.html I can't find the FCC source.

I'll update this list in a test team kit today.
