When an standard LTR system home channel is busy, it broadcasts available talk channels to other mobiles not in its talk group. Now is this a channel number assignment a-la EDACS or Smartnet(binary RF freq), or is it just a channel 'offer' ? In the case where the mobile is programmed with channels that are out of service, or where the site has channels not yet added to the mobiles channel list, do bad things happen ? I would like to believe that the mobile will only try a channel # that is offered to it by the site that it also has programmed into its repeater list. This would certainly make things easier. I realize that normally a dead home channel is a deal breaker.
