I'm assuming the answer to this is "no," but I'll ask anyway...
Is it possible to have sites from the same trunked system assigned to different Favorites Lists? Let's say one has a statewide trunked system. FL 1 is used for the northern part of the state, and the user wants all the relevant northern sites from the TRS in FL 1. FL 2 is used for the southern part of the state, and the user wants the southern sites in FL 2. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Dave
There's no reason you couldn't do that.
You could append the system to both FL 1 & FL 2, from the main US database in Sentinel.
Then, use the system's database page to get the correct site names for each region (you'd probably be better served to leave it accessed so that you can toggle back & forth between it & Sentinel).
In Sentinel, for each FL, click on the system name in the left side window.
The right side window will then display all the various "departments" (cities, counties, agencies), as well as the sites.
You can either hold down the <Ctrl> key then click each site and/or department you want to remove, or if they are consecutively listed, hold down the <Shift> key and click the first and last one in the string. If you're doing your "northern" list, then you'd be selecting the sites and departments from the southern half of the system. The southern list, of course, would simply be the reverse.
When you have the ones to be removed highlighted, hit the delete key, and confirm that you do want them removed. Repeat as necessary to "trim" the FL to what you want.
Then, using the same process for the other list, trim the sites and departments that you don't want in it.
Someone else may have a different method, but that's the way I'd approach it, and have done it for a large regional system (TxWARN P25) in my area. I can only monitor a small part of it, the bulk of it being out of range, so I eliminated those sites and agencies from my favorites lists.
I should add that you are doing this in the main menu, the Profile screen, no need to use the favorites list editor.
