Vote Scan
Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in areas where
there are multiple base stations transmitting identical
information on different analog channels.
Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base stations and
performs a voting process to select the strongest received
signal. Once that is established, your radio unmutes to
transmissions from that base station.
The yellow LED blinks and the vote scan icon appears on the
status bar.
To respond to a transmission during a Vote Scan, follow the
same procedures as Responding to a Transmission During a
