Cool. I've added the frequencies to my list.

I've installed PC-ALE but it hasn't demodulated
anything. Normally it says "SCANNING" and then
when I hear a signal it typically says "SYNCING" or
something like that but it has never printed a demodulated
message.
Do you know what the settings are to make it
demodulate signals?

I'll have to check. If you look under configuration / options, you're
have to identify the receiver type. Then you're asked which features
you want to enable, and you should be able to pick and choose
liberally here. Then there are some parameters. The values I'm using
are as follows:

60 - Sounding Period
4 - Resound Period
3 - DCD Threshold
1 - Call Attempts
360 - TWA
30 - PTTD ms
25 - Sync Votes
25 - Frame Votes
0 - SCSC
18 - LQA Timeout
1 - Sync Errors
3 - Frame Errors
30 - Listen Time
50 - TX Audio Level
50 - RX Audio Level
1 - Radio Comm Port

I don't know what all of these values represent, but these are the
ones I use and everything seems to work okay.

Those seem to all be the defaults. (Except I show 180 LQA Timeout,
and the 0 is half cut off.)
I also have lots of other options on that window. Do you have
something like "Current Group" "_A _B _C....." and
"Enable/Disable" "_Sounding _Polling _LQA _Allcalls _Anycalls....."?

Also, it doesn't have my receiver type, but I don't think
that should matter much, especially if I am not transmitting.

I doubt that the "Current Group" area is the problem. Any frequency
you plug in is going to be placed in some group or other, and when the
receiver is scanning it will scan all of the groups.

I have the following "enabled":

Allcalls
Anycalls
Display Sounds
Listen Calls
Freq display
Voice detect

These may have been defaults...I can't recall now.

I'm surprised that there's no place where it says "Radio Type". On
mine, this appears in the upper right hand corner of the configuration/
options screen. When you click on it, there's a drop down menu that
includes a bunch of receivers.
