Phase I or II is used for Trunking Systems

I believe talkgroups can be used on a conventional system. not at all common but can be done. Only 1 conversation at a time but they can be programmed.

Some of the Unidens allowed 1 Freq Trunking, where many of us monitored the P25 Radio ID's and did see some [mostly Federal] agencies using various TG's besides 1 and 4095

Getting the Agawam Police D signal really well today. Lots of signal checks going on though. Anyone have an idea when the other stations will be converting over to P25 in Agawam?
