INTRODUCTION Welcome to Motorola’s HT Series family of radio users. This user guide supports HT1250•LS+™ radios. These radios combine the very latest in two-way technology while delivering outstanding functionality at the touch of a button. HT1250•LS+ portable radios operate on UHF/ VHF PassPort, LTR Trunked, and Conventional radio systems. Contact your Motorola dealer for a list of features available with your radio.
CONVENTIONAL RADIO SYSTEMS Conventional radio systems typically refer to unit-to-unit communications through a single channel. Conventional systems also allow radio users to extend communication coverage by relaying their messages through a repeater. To ensure coordinated use by multiple talkgroups, each radio user must monitor the channel or repeater before transmitting to verify that the system is not currently busy.
• • NTIA Band Support (403-420 MHz) including 9 MHz Rx/Tx Separation in both 25 KHz and 12.5 KHz channel spacing.* Conventional Zone Features • MDC-1200 Signaling** - Call Signalling Features - PTT ID Alias or MIN (Display of Mobile Identification Number or Alias if preprogrammed in the radio.
