Quiet Channels

What is the Quiet Channel?

Many of our DMRVA codeplugs include a special Quiet channel.

►  The Quiet channel has no talkgroup associated with it.  You cannot transmit directly on this channel.

►  This channel idles the radio on timeslot 1 of the selected repeater, listening for text messages, direct radio-to-radio ("private") calls, and All Call broadcasts.

►  The radio will not respond to calls on any talkgroups and no scan list is provided for this channel.

The Quiet channel is located two channels below Clear Timeslot in each DMRVA zone.

How to Use It

Switch to the Quiet channel anytime you want to be available for direct contact (calls or messages) but you don't want to hear other talkgroup chatter, such as overnight.
