| − | Editing a group is the lowest level in the Dynamic Memory Architecture. Here you can have either frequencies (if you've allocated a conventional system) or talkgroups (for a trunked system). This screen can be accessed by putting the cursor on a group in the System View (the white shaded area on the left) or by hitting the Group button to the right of the 'Create' item in the toolbar.
