Trunked Announcement
The announcement capability allows you to make
announcements to the entire user group, as well as
monitor talkgroup calls and other announcements.
Announcement calls are handled in two different
ways, depending on the trunked central controller
configuration. The two types are called ruthless and
non-ruthless preemption.
Ruthless
When a ruthless preemption
Preemption
announcement call is initiated, the
requesting radio begins transmitting
immediately. All associated talkgroup
calls taking place on other channels
are immediately halted, and the
radios are steered to the
announcement call.
Transmitting radios continue to
transmit until the PTT button is
released, at which time they also
unmute for the announcement call.
Individual calls (Private Conversation
and telephone interconnect) are not
affected.
Non-
When a non-ruthless preemption
Ruthless
announcement is initiated, the
Preemption
initiating unit receives a telephone-
type busy tone, followed by a call
back when all associated talkgroup
conversations end.
Once an announcement call is
pending, any attempts by other users
to initiate a talkgroup call will result in
a telephone-type busy tone. These
users will not receive a call back until
the announcement call is complete.
Initiating an Announcement
Ensure your radio has been programmed to allow
announcement calls.
