A repeater receives a first group message directed to a talk group. The repeater assigns a first unique message identifier including a generated first sequence number to the first group message. The repeater broadcasts the first group message with the first unique message identifier and the unique talk group address to the talk group. The repeater later receives a second group message directed to the talk group, generates a second sequence number from the generated first sequence number, assigns a second unique message identifier including the second sequence number to the second group message and broadcasts the second group message to the talk group. The first sequence number and the second sequence number may be used by a receiving radio of the talk group to determine if the radio failed to receive one or more group messages or if a received group messages is a duplicate message.

Apparatus and method for retrieving group messages

In a peer to peer trunked radio network having a plurality of network locations, each network location includes a plurality of repeaters and a dynamically selected at least temporarily act as a rest channel repeater at each network location. A first repeater at the first network location may determine a first timing at which to broadcast an intra-site beacon and a second timing at which to broadcast an inter-site roaming beacon, the intra-site beacon including at least a rest channel identifier indicating a rest channel of the first network location and the inter-site roaming beacon including at least remote rest channel repeater information identifying a second repeater at a second network location that is currently acting as a rest channel repeater at the second network location. The first repeater may then broadcast the intra-site beacon at the first timing and the inter-site roaming beacon at the second timing.
