Responding to the Dynamic Regrouping Feature
(Trunking Only)
This feature allows the dispatcher to temporarily
reassign selected radios to a particular channel where
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 hear an invalid tone.
When your radio is dynamically regrouped, it
automatically switches to the dynamically regrouped
channel. You hear a Gurgle tone and the display
shows the dynamically regrouped channel’s name.
Press the PTT button to talk. Release PTT button
to listen.

radio automatically returns to the zone and channel
