Abstract
In a communication system that comprises a plurality of communication groups, a plurality of transceivers, and a plurality of consoles which monitor selected communication groups, a console may quickly monitor an unmonitored communication in the following manner. When the console detects activity in a particular unmonitored communication group, that communication group is placed into a receive queue. Once the communication group is in the receive queue, a dispatcher of the console may select the communication group and place it into a monitoring queue. Once in the monitoring queue, the dispatcher has full monitoring capabilities over that communication group. Once the dispatcher is done with the communication group, or call activity ends in the communication group, the communication group is placed back into a system group list.
