Allocate verified tracking receiver channels
Plan logical radio assignments within verified classic-compatible and Ultimate receiver pools, keeping reserved channels and unknown capacities explicit.
Your setup and observations
Allocate free documented radio channels, not USB sockets. This worksheet supports one homogeneous classic-compatible pool and, separately, at most one documented Ultimate dongle with up to five supported trackers.
Work through a concrete example
Example: three requested classic-compatible devices and three verified total slots fit when none are reserved. Reserve one of those same three slots for an existing controller and one requested device is short. Five spare Ultimate channels cannot fill that classic-pool shortfall.
Define a compatible pool first
Classic pool totals may include only receivers/channels documented to support all requested devices in that pool. Count verified headset spare channels only if the exact hardware/runtime evidence establishes them; this Tool never subtracts or adds a generic two headset slots.
Reservations are inside the total
Reserved means already-occupied channels included in the entered total. Requested devices are additional demand, not those reserved devices. Unknown receiver capacity or device support remains unverified even if entered numbers appear sufficient.
Physical dongles do not equal channels
Tundra SW3/SW5/SW7 document multiple compatible channels. Ultimate uses a different receiver family with up to five trackers per documented dongle and does not need Lighthouse stations. Do not transfer spare capacity between families.
Worksheet labels are not wiring
Assignments label logical free channels only. They are not actual hardware addresses, a pairing command, RF reliability prediction, app tracker limit or instruction to change an existing working pairing.
