Select Channels (Talkgroups)

Choose which channels you want active in your player.

Important:
Each selected channel can add audio to your player. If several selected channels become active around the same time, that audio is played in order and may begin to queue up. This can cause what you hear to fall behind real-time traffic.

For the best experience, only enable the channels you actually want to monitor.
