Using CPS 11.0, is there a way to not display the group id? For example, while scanning two different frequencies with the same group, how do you tell which channel your radio lands on?

Same with Roam for that matter. Until the group call goes away, there is no way to know which channel or site you are on.

No, there isn't. People have struggled with this for years when scanning multiple users. Ideally you should be able to setup systems like you can in Astro25 CPS... but as TRBO isn't an upper tier product, and is basically intended for smaller customers, I don't ever see Motorola adding this.

You can have multiple group calls with different names and the same group ID. So, make the channel name part of the group name. It becomes a bit more limiting on characters, but it could work.

I've tried that, it will grab the one that comes first in alphabetical order.

That's what I was afraid of.

Thanks guys, I was just making sure I didn't miss a check box or something.
