Selecting a Group ID

When programming a new PublicGroup, press under Change to select a PublicGroup ID from 1-100. IDs already in use on your radio will be preceded by an “x”.

When programming a new PrivateGroup, the radio selects your GroupID from your contact list.

Press under Change to select another Group ID. Since the default GroupID is dependent upon the contact list of all radios being the same, it is recommended to clone PrivateGroups to other radios.

Entering a Home Group Number (Private Calls Only)

If a Home Group is selected for your radio, then it will return to that Group after 30 seconds of inactivity. This ensures that any transmissions on this channel are not missed. Selecting a Home Group also automatically adds the contact to that PrivateGroup.

1.Scroll to select the Home Group Number and press under Change. The Home Group screen appears.
