Priority channels. You can cancel the priority check and the interruptions in the
conversations by pressing HOLD/RESUME to hold on the frequency.

Priority channels have been pre-determined by the manufacturer as those Highway Patrol
frequencies most commonly used for mobile extenders and for car-to-car and aircraft-to-car
operations. Mobile extenders re-transmit every radio broadcast received on the patrol car
radio to the officer’s walkie-talkie at low-power. Every time any officer or dispatcher talks
(transmits), the signal is broadcast like a beacon at low-power whether or not the officer is
out of the car.
