Talk Groups
u Kind of like FRS “privacy” tones
u Multiple talk groups can be supported on a single time slot by a single repeater
u You can have your radio “subscribe” to specific talk groups
u You will only hear those talk groups that you are subscribed to
u “Private Call” is an individual talk group specific to you and one other station

IPSC (Repeater Linking)
u IP Site Connect
u NOT defined by the ETSI standard
u Generally vendor specific (i.e., Motorola equipment can not link with Hytera)
u Allows repeaters to connect over the Internet
u Can use a system known as a c-Bridge to connect dissimilar networks together
u Allows talk groups to exist over a wide area (even world wide)

Zones
u Like Kenwood TM-D710 “super” memories
u Can program a zone for a specific set of repeaters/channels
u zone for specific area: local, state, neighboring state
