GENERAL INFORMATION
Thank you for purchasing the Motorola GTX LTR®mobile radio.
GTX mobile radios has ten (10) trunked modes with eight (8) talk-
groups in each trunked mode, and ten (10) conventional channels
and are available in the 800 MHz and 900 MHz frequency ranges.
Intelligent and flexible software increased the radio’s capability and
permits many of the radios features to be customized for you.
ARNING:
When installing or removing the mobile radio from the
vehicle, the radio must be turned off.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of
Warnings,Cautions,andNotes. These notations are used to

MULTIPLE SELECTION
Each trunked mode may have its own unique set of talkgroups, Call
Alert paging, and Private Conversation calls. After a trunked mode
has been selected, there is a delay of approximately one second
before the radio can receive or transmit calls.
TALKGROUP SELECTION
A trunked system can be divided into different talkgroups. This
enables the system owner to organize the talkgroups into commu-
nication groups according to function. Members of a specific talk-
group hear only messages intended for their talkgroup. For
example, if talkgroup B is selected, you will not receive messages
for talkgroup E.
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES OF TRUNKING
The GTX mobile radio can operate on both trunked and conven-
tional radio systems. Conventional typically refers to radio-to-radio
communication, sometimes through a repeater.
A trunked radio system allows a large number of users to share a
relatively small number of frequencies without interfering with each
other.
The air time of all the repeaters in the trunked system is pooled,
which maximizes the amount of air time available to any one radio,
and minimizes channel congestion.
Some of the overall key benefits of an LTR Trunked Radio System
are:
•No channel monitoring required prior to transmission.
•Improved system access.
•Automatic channel selection.
•Increased privacy among members of the same group.
•Only one attempt is required to access the system. If all chan-
nels are busy, the call request enters a queue and the central
controller automatically assigns the next available channel. Two
(2) medium-pitched tones followed by one (1) high-pitched tone
sounds when the call can be made.
