DMR Question

[AC0RV]

Ok, Here it goes. After you program the frequency for a single frequency DMR system Can you use either the Color Slot or the time slot just listen to only one agency or user on that frequency ?



Note to the mods: If this post is not in the correction forum. Please repost it in the correct one.


BIG THANKS.

Color Code, not color slot. Color Codes are used to distinguish multiple repeaters that may be on the same frequency with overlapping coverage areas. You can specify a color code for each frequency in the system site(s).

Specify talkgroups to filter traffic, not timeslot. A talkgroup ID is going to consistently carry a particular user or usergroup, such as maintenance, security, dispatch, etc. A timeslot often does not. Many systems dynamically assign timeslots, and Talkgroup X may be on slot 1 one transmission and Slot 2 the next. Filtering by timeslot is a bad habit to get into.
