Using the radio in different
repeater areas
Your radio may have a group of channels programmed as
a voting group. The channels in the voting group all
carry the same traffic, but from different repeaters. As
your radio moves in and out of different repeater
coverage areas, the best communication channel is
automatically selected for you to use, until a better
communications channel is selected.
This channel is known as the ‘home’ channel, and will be
the channel you make and receive calls on. While voting
is active, the scanning icon appears in the display.
The section “Selecting a group” on page 79 explains
how to select a group. A group can be either a voting or
a scanning group.
Suspending a channel from a voting group
You may be able to use the function key programmed for
nuisance delete to temporarily delete one of the
channels from the voting group.
When that voting group is next selected, or after the
radio has been turned off and then on, the deleted
channel is again part of the voting group.
Alternatively, the function key programmed for voting
may be programmed so that a short key press turns on
voting, and a long key press activates nuisance delete.
■ Press and hold the function key programmed for
voting to remove the current channel from the
voting group.
If the operation has been successful, the message
Channel deleted from group appears in the display.
