Analog radio with 1 to 1 calling

Thank you thank you THANK YOU!
Exactly the information I was looking for. Forum members like you are the reason I love forums. I'm glad I persevered until I got what I was looking for.

Very much appreciated. Have yourself a great holiday, and thank you as well to the others that took the time to offer some models for consideration.

A cheaper alternative to the HT1250 would be the MTS2000 model 2 or 3, although you will need to make sure that MDC is enabled in the flashcode.

Is MDC-1200 used for Selcall between portable radios, as it appears the OP wants?
I'd look for DTMF SelCall, like the Standard C558A TwinBand HT from the early 90's I have. You could set a Group or All Call, as well as Individual Calling. Anybody with a scanner or other radio that didn't have SelCall set up can listen in, but the radios within your group would remain silent.
This shouldn't be too hard to find on current or recent manufacture commercial radios for your needs.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll do some searching for MDC-1200 and DTMF Selective Calling and see what models support that.

I set up what you are looking for on a system we tested but never rolled out due restrictions at the worksite beyond our control(ended up on Nextel).
The system we tested was using Kenwood Protalk TK3130's set up with Selcal on Fleetsync. We were using 1 channel, with 4 groups and indidivual IDs to each radio. All call, Group call and Individual call were able to be made.
The TK3230 is the current radio in the Kenwood line and it has Fleetsync available and from looking at the manual it has full instructions for setting up Fleetsync via the radio buttons.

Thanks, Steve.

Are the Kenwoods Digital or Analog?

These are analog only radios. The tk3130 were used in target stores before the current Motorola radios, and the tk3230 are used in many Hone Depot stores.

My ht1250 is analog has selcal and mdc1200 and qcII
I run talk groups on the same channel with different dpl works like a charm got 25 + users running a m1225 base repeater used for maint housekeeping and admin. All can go to the 'main' channel for emergencies
