A zone is an artificial grouping of channels (or talkgroups) to permit ease of operation. Generally, all members of
a zone will reflect some common characteristic such as geographic location, job function, signalling type, etc.
Each member of a zone is defined by selecting a conventional personality, or a trunking personality and a
talkgroup. An optional name can also be assigned to each member of the zone. Each zone can also be named
on radios equipped with a display The number of characters allotted for the zone name versus the channel
name is defined on the RADIO WIDE DISPLAY OPTIONS screen (F4/F3/F6). Zones and channels can be added
and deleted via the function keys designated at the bottom of the screen.
