Talkgroup Numbering

[Tophtoh]

is there a specific talkgroup code, i guess... ok, i have never seen a talkgroup in decimal format under 16, so does it start at 16 and go to? or if it possible to make whatever talkgroup you want to make? is 16, 48, 80 the only order they go in? thanks

On Motorola Type II systems, it starts at 16 and can go as high as 65534. It can either go in increments of 32 (16, 48, 80, 112, etc...) or increments of 16.

For the newer P-25 systems (with 9600 baud CC), they start at 1 and go to 65534, as well (I believe, don't quote me on that)

Tophtoh you should review the trunking pages on the RR Wiki especially the pages dealing with Motorola.

65520. I'm assuming you are referring to values where the status bits are all zeroes, as you described increments of 16. The highest ID, with all status bits set, would be 65535 (0xFFFF). Mask out the low 4 (status) bits, and the base ID is 65520 (0xFFF0).
