Thanks Mike,
Only one question then. When A vehicle travels outside of its Zone (eg/ Zone 1 to Zone 2) how does the radio remain in contact with any tower in their not operative zone.
Many times I have listened to Peterborough units telling Orillia com centre they are switching back to their Zone 2 Talkgroup from a Zone 1 Talkgroup. The radio has obviously allowed them to affilliate with zone 1 towers as this has been heard on the whitby tower. Unfortunately I have not heard them then speak to their com centre as I do not have these talkgroups entered into my Zone 1 bank.
Is it possible that the talkgroup ID's we see displayed are able to affilliate with the boundary towers of the next zone?
Many of the Zone Common Channels are repeated from Zone 1 to Zone 2, just labelled slightly different.

What you are saying makes total sense to me, but I ask How Come then?
Thanks,
