TGID must match the channels programmed
receive NAC and TGID for the radio to unmute.
The default TGID is 1. The TGID value 65535
($FFFF hex) is used to effect an “All Call”. If the
radio receives a signal with a matching NAC and
the TGID = 65535 ($FFFF hex), it will unmute.
Also, if the radio’s programmed TGID is 65535
($FFFF hex), it will open on any signal with a
matching NAC, ignoring the incoming TGID. A
TGID = 0 means “no one”. If the radio is
programmed with the TGID = 0, it will accept
incoming group calls containing the “All Call”
TGID, and correctly addressed Unit-to-Unit calls.
