Voting and talk around are two completely separate things, Think of voting as scanning that selects the best (usually Strongest) signal and forces the radio over to that channel, in this case the radio will be looking at two frequencies (Repeater Output, AND base/mobile output) and comparing them for best signal. obviously if two users are working closely in a basement for instance, it ensures seamless switching of the users portables, and eliminates untrained users selecting the wrong channel. Talk around or Talk around scanning just stops on the first channel with valid carrier (Or noise). Done right, Voting is seamless and invisible to the user.

The voting setup allows comms to take place without having to worry about TA buttons or channel changing. Just set and forget. Greg
