Hey guys, I'm working on a communication solution for two conventions we run each year. I'm pretty sure at this point I would like to rent all of the equipment, as we only need the system for about 7-10 days per year.
What I am looking for is a 4 talk group system (Operations, Security, Guest Relations, and a Misc. group) and I want to make sure that no talk group is blocked by lack of capacity, so I assume we will need 2 channels (4 voice paths) to accomplish this.
Where I am a little stuck is the dispatch side of things, we will have someone doing dispatch during the show, I was told by my rental vendor that something like the transmit interrupt suite, would only be available to a permanent or self owned system. I was also told that a mobile radio could be setup to interrupt a talk group, however once set that way, it can only interrupt and not function normally.
After reading through the MotoTRBO system planner document, I came up with a work around in my head: Guest relations and Misc. groups don't need to be monitored by dispatch, so if we rent three mobile radios, have one on Operations, one on Security and the third set to all call interrupt across all 4 talk groups, it would allow normal dispatching with the ability to interrupt broadcast across all talk groups in an emergency.
I'm very new to MotoTRBO (I started reading about it yesterday) so my knowledge is quite lacking, but I've been learning a lot. Is this a good solution? Is there a better way to accomplish this?
Thank you in advance.
