  • Unless a radio is deleted from the RM Server's database (see Delete Radio), a radio's archive-history based-on Radio Management Read / Write events (see Schedule a Job) is always maintained in the database.

  • The codeplug's filename becomes the suggested Template name, which can be appropriately renamed (see Manage Templates).
