HomePatrol-How to turn off iCall in search mode.

[wise871]

Is there any way to turn off iCall while having search mode enabled on a trunk system? I'm recording audio on a local trunk system to ID new talkgroups but I'm running into a problem were the city maintenance works rather use iCall (radio to radio) instead of there assigned talkgroup. There transmissions are causing me to miss hits on new TG. These guys are a bunch of chatter boxes, hahahahaha.

Go into the favorites list for this trunked system.
Select "Edit System" then "Edit Department".
Create a Department called iCall. Create one channel in that department
with the TGID of "i0". Select Avoid Channel and avoid the "i0" talkgroup.
That should do it.
