Setting Priority in Trunking Mode
You can set priority in your trunking lists, just as you do in your conventional ones.You can
set the priority by pressing and holding PRI for 2 seconds. After you’ve set up your Scan
List, press
PRI
to activate it.
It’s very similar to conventional priority although there is no “interrupt” during the
transmissions. Priorities are checked in between transmissions.
With Priority on, you can hold on an ID in your Scan List, such as Scan List 6, memory
position 7, and the scanner will check all the priorities in all the active Scan Lists every few
seconds and in between any transmissions on the ID on which you’re holding. The lowest
numbered priority will be checked first. For example, the priority ID in List 1 will be checked
before the priority in List 2, etc.
Note: This function does not work in LTR tracking.
