LTR, and Conventional...

[INDY72]

OK I know on Moto, and EDACS radios, you can program in both conventional chans, as well as the trunked systems you need. Can you do the same with a LTR radio?

Example- VHF two site LTR Law Enforcement, and VHF Conventional in the same mobile/HT. Is this possible with say an Motorola HT1250?

I don't know about the Moto radios, but most of the other brands (Kenwood, ICOM) you can.

Yes you can program a ltr and conventional channels on the same radios. I know that the 1250 and 1550 by Motorola are capable of this along with Kenwood, Vertex and Icom (with UT 111 board). Some radios will not allow to scan both at the same time. For instance the Icom's with the UT 111 board will scan conventional or scan ltr but not both. The new KEnwood TK 2180 will scan both with priority. The kenwood 280, 2140 will scan both but without priority. I use a TK 2180 and scan about 75 channels plus 4 ltr systems, with several groups each all in the same radio

hope this answers your questions and then some!
