A Typical Wide Area Smartzone System
In today's wide area systems, failsoh communi- cation can be accomplished in one ofthree ways:
1. When a subscriber must enter failsoft, it will only monitor for failsotl information on those frequen- cies that are programmed as control channels in the radio. This is an automatic procedure, but it puts all of the subscribers on the same frequency at the site.
2. Each talkgroup has an associated failsot? liequency
to monitor when the radio has determined that failsotl is necessary. This takes up large amounts ofmemory in the radio as the number oftalkgroups increases.
3. The subscriber user must select the appropriate personality in the radio~,that has been programmed to contain the failsofl frequency for the user's loca- tion. If the user can be in many locations through- out a large wide area system, there is inadequate memory in the radio to contain all of this infor-
