Description of the feature you're suggesting.

Is it possible to add the Dutch P2000 (emergency paging system, fire/med) to the POCSAG app:
Freq: 169.650
Descr: P2000
Norm: FLEX
Baud: 1600
Modulaltion: 2FSK

Happy NewYear and Brgds

Anything else?

I would like to have this feature as well, if possible.

AFAIK:
Dutch P2000 is a public paging network in the Netherlands that operates on the POCSAG protocol, primarily used for emergency services like fire brigades, ambulances, and police. The system is part of the C2000 communications infrastructure, which is the national network for public safety and emergency services in the Netherlands.
It's using POCSAG protocol, and operate at 169.650 MHz. There is no particular data processing, so just changing the frequency in the POCSAG app should be enough ?
Please tell me if I'm right or wrong.

Thanks for your reply and mentioning the frequency (e.g. 169.650 MHz).
I can hear the typical sound (modem-sounds, verry clear) on this channel so the signal is there, but the application is not showing the decoded messages. However I see that when a signal comes in, (rx satu% 81) , it tries te decode them, i think.

(squelch set to 0, modulation type 1).

According to the Dutch P2000 messages, they are 1600 Baud and flex encoding, instead of the normal 1200Baud and Modulation is 2FSK.

In the Config section of the POCSAG app, i can save a log file.
If needed I can post it here, because it isn't working according to me.

The current app only supports: Baud Rate: 05: 512bps, 12: 1200bps, 24: 2400bps (as far as i can see)
The P2000 system only works on 1600 baud.

Indeed, I saw in the source code that it didn't support 1600 bps. Unfortunately I'm not qualified to change this meself. I tried to understand how the applications for the H4M work, and how to setup a development environment for this. But I'm not up to that task at this moment with my current knowledge ;-(
