I have a Moto EX600 XLS portable radio, and I know you can use it as a pager.
I have programed the tone frequencies and the sequence (A-B) in a Quick Call II system already. I have also assigned that signal to a channel I designated as my pager channel (The dispatch channel). I did a test by setting the signal to a test frequency, and using another radio, I toned out on this test frequency. Now the EX600 did go into call alert, and made the proper beep, just as if it were a pager. So it worked. Now my problem is that the pager channel is constantly open on the frequency, monitoring everything. What I want is to actually use it as a pager where it will only open up on the desired channel when the tones go out (Like a monitor v). I do not want to scan my dispatch channel while on this pager channel, because the county dispatches my fire/ems, along with like 20 other departments, and I only want it to open up, and monitor the frequency when MY tones go off...
Is this possible? Please let me know if I am not making sense, I will try and clarify.
Thanks
