Never say never... I've seen software for many or
most of the trunking formats where channels can be
preferred, reserved or queued based on priorities
and preference. It can really get out of hand in
some hybrid public safety and consumer mix systems.
... then add interconnect (telephone auto patch)
into the mix.
Although I've not had to get into the MTP or Edacs
system too much... I've seen and done repeater stacking
on Motorola and LTR trunking formats. One time for
the same reason we're talking about it today.
As if we don't have enough to understand in the
world of two-way radio.

Rarely have I been allowed an available choice... one
system I have on VHF has 200 KHz tx to rx spacing.
Thank you FCC for making my day... yes, the system
works just fine. Another story some day.
