There is no option for you to choose a code. You can either add a trip via makeup or trip trade.
Straight pick up with no trade is only via M/U and you have to have the bank available (+6 CH)
If you trade a trip you got via M/U, you have to have enough hours in your M/U bank (including the 6CH buffer) to cover the trade. Any trips you get that way will be coded M/U.
Trading trips that were originally part of your awarded line allows an overage of 12 CH and will result in a TRP code.
The main thing to remember is no mixing of trip codes.
Also, as a side note for the long haul guys. If you pick up a trip via M/U, any BKO hours earned on that trip come out of your M/U bank as well.
