Group Or
Subfleet -A group of users share the same program group
identification number in their mobile and personal
radios. All units in the same group will receive a
dispatch call placed by any one unit in the group.
(Trunked Mode only).
Group Scan - Programming that allows the radio to monitor many
groups simultaneously (multi-group decode),
permitting the user to both monitor and receive calls
from these groups. The radio may be programmed
with a scan hang time which causes the radio to
remain on the scanned group for a pre-programmed
amount of time, responding only to calls of a higher
priority such as priority scan group calls, individual
calls, fleet calls, agency calls, etc. When activity on
the scan group ends, and the pre-programmed time
has expired, the radio returns to monitoring multiple
groups. (Trunked Mode Only)

unique individual identification code. A mobile or
personal unit can be programmed to call another
particular unit by selecting the individual by name
or ID number. (Trunked Mode Only)
