Dynamic Regrouping (Trunking Only)
This feature allows the dispatcher to temporarily reassign selected radios to a particular channel to
communicate with each other.
When your radio is dynamically regrouped, it receives a dynamic regrouping command and automatically
switches to the dynamically regrouped channel. You hear a tone and the display shows the name of the
dynamically regrouped channel.
When the dispatcher cancels dynamic regrouping, the radio automatically returns to the previous zone and
channel.
If you access a zone or channel that has been reserved as a dynamically regrouped mode for other users,
you hear an invalid tone.
