Abstract
A method of acquiring communications with a communications system having a plurality of communications channels includes storing a previously acquired communications channel in user terminal memory. The user terminal searches for the previously acquired communications channel in said user terminal memory, and acquires the previously acquired communications channel when the previously acquired communications channel is available. Channel acquisition times can thus be reduced.
