ASTRO XTS 2500 Model III 69
Special Radio Features
Dynamic Regrouping (Trunking Only)
The dynamic regrouping feature lets the dispatcher temporarily
reassign selected radios to a single special channel so they can
communicate with each other. This feature is typically used during
special operations and is enabled by a qualified radio technician. You
will not notice whether your radio has this feature enabled until a
dynamic regrouping command is sent by the dispatcher.
Note: If you try to access a zone or channel that has been reserved
by the dispatcher as a dynamically regrouped mode for other
users, you will hear an invalid tone.
Reprogram Request (ASTRO 25 Trunking Only)
This feature lets you notify the dispatcher that you want a new
dynamic regrouping assignment.
Use the Menu
When your radio is dynamically regrouped, it automatically
switches to the dynamically regrouped channel. You see the
dynamically regrouped channel’s name, and hear a “gurgle”
tone.
Press the PTT button to talk; release it to listen.
When the dispatcher cancels dynamic regrouping, the radio
automatically returns to the zone and channel that you were
using before the radio was dynamically regrouped.
