Adding static frequencies

Bring outside frequencies — house channels, other productions, fixed installs — into the zone as a locked group that calculations must avoid.

Static frequencies represent transmitters you don’t control but must coordinate around. Coord places them in a new group using a Generic Non-IMD equipment profile: they arrive locked, are excluded from intermodulation testing, and are only checked for direct frequency conflicts — future calculations avoid them.

Add static frequencies

1. Open the zone selector menu and choose Add Static Frequencies. The Add Static Frequencies dialog opens with two tabs.

   

2. Either:
   • Manual Entry — type frequencies in MHz separated by commas (e.g. 470.000,470.300,470.600) and click Add, or
   • Import File — drop in a CSV (Choose a CSV file or drag it here).
3. During import, Coord checks channel spacing against the zone’s existing frequencies.

The new group appears in the coordination list; rename it to something meaningful (“House RF”, “Broadcast truck”) like any other group.

Note

Static frequencies act as blockers, not as coordinated devices: they’re never retuned by recalculation and don’t get intermodulation products calculated between themselves. If you need the outside rig fully IMD-coordinated with yours, add its devices with real equipment profiles instead. See Managing outside production frequencies.
