Dynamic Talkaround Scan
This feature maximizes communication coverage for an on-site repeater enabled on two way radio
systems.
Dynamic Talkaround Scan is enabled on a repeater channel through the Customer Programming
Software (CPS). The feature gives the radio the ability to scan the transmit and receive frequencies of
a repeater channel.
NOTICE: The feature is given higher priority than the scan mode. If the Dynamic Talkaround
Scan and Scan are enabled on the home channel, then the radio can only support the Dynamic
Talkaround Scan.
