The user’s radios always listen for activity on the output frequency and transmit on the input frequency. Since the repeater is located very high, there is a very large line of sight. Typical repeater sys[...]

    The four systems in use are: • Motorola Type I – the radios send the radio ID, the fleet and subfleet talkgroup ID to the control channel each time they transmit. To program a Type I system, you need to know the system’s fleet map. The most common fleet maps are included at the back of this manual. You can also find fleet map resources on the[...]

    • Logical Channel Numbers – each frequency used by the system is assigned an LCN. This information is programmed into each user radio. When a user presses PTT , their radio sends their AFS information to the control channel. The computer then assigns that talkgroup to a channel and sends the LCN so that all other radios in that talkgroup will s[...]

    LTR Trunking LTR ® (Logic Trunked Radio) systems are trunking systems used primarily by business or private communications service providers, such as taxicabs, delivery trucks, and repair services. These systems encode all control information as digital subaudible data that accompanies each transmission, so there is no separate control channel. Us[...]
