Conventional Talkgroup

Provides group separation of voice communications on digital-only conventional channels. Subscribers and console operators using the same talkgroup can communicate with each other and users of other talkgroups do not hear them. When a transmission is made to a certain talkgroup, only users monitoring that talkgroup hear the transmission. Also, talkgroups provide for separation of emergency alarms. After a talkgroup is assigned to a conventional channel, it cannot be used on a different channel or be used for trunked operation.
