Channel Types
Conventional Channels
Conventional channels use a single global frequency. All players on the channel can hear and talk to each other, no matter their location. This is the standard radio behavior most users are familiar with—everyone shares the same line of communication at all times.
Trunking Channels
Trunking channels differ from conventional channels by using a range of frequencies instead of a single one. Players are automatically assigned a frequency based on their in-game location.
For example, if four units are on the same trunking channel—two at Mission Row PD and two at the hospital—each group will only hear transmissions from nearby units. This is because they are likely assigned the same local frequency.
Each trunking channel also includes a control frequency, which is global. Anyone on the channel can hear transmissions on this frequency. Dispatchers and units with the Signal 100 NACID can join this frequency to broadcast globally.
Example Use Case: You can stay connected to dispatch while monitoring a C2C (Car-to-Car) channel. If someone at your scene needs to reach you, they can transmit through the car to car channel.

Background Sound FX
In-game, you'll hear background audio effects depending on the situation of the transmitting user, this currently includes:
Siren FX
Helicopter FX
Gunshot FX
Analog FX
Nearby 3D Audio (Experimental)
If enabled, players nearby someone using a radio will hear real radio traffic, tones, and effects—exactly as the radio user hears them. If a radio user is driving an emergency vehicle, their radio traffic will also play near the vehicle when they walk away. Additionally, if you transmit while on scene with other units on your frequency, you’ll hear yourself—this is intentional for realism.
Dispatch Panel
