Conventional Communications

(Glossary)

HGDefinition.jpg

In Conventional communications a CPS-defined frequency is used for each channel. To hear / receive specific transmissions, you must have the specific frequency for that channel programmed into your radio. Conventional channels can only communicate with radios operating on Conventional channels.

Conventional channels may use Non-ASTRO Conventional System types (MDC, DTMF, Quik-Call II, Singletone), the ASTRO system type, the DVRS system type, and ASTRO Talkgroups.
