Status Bit - This term refers to Motorola Type II systems. There is a method by which special types of communications utilize unique talk group numbers.

For example, if all emergency calls are set to occur on a specific talk group number then you will not miss the transmission even if you have not programmed all the talk group numbers. With the Status Bit on and you have programmed the unique number, then you don’t have to worry what the rest of the groups numbers are. The topic of interest will be picked up.

Talkgroup - A group of users within a trunked system that communicates with one another.
