the Menu Inactive Exit Tone upon feature exit.

Using the Dynamic Regrouping Feature (Trunking
Only)
This feature allows the dispatcher to temporarily reassign
selected radios to a single special channel so they can
communicate with each other. This feature is typically used
during special operations and is enabled by a qualified radio
technician.
You will not notice whether your radio has this feature enabled
until a dynamic regrouping command is sent by the dispatcher.
Note:
If you try to access a zone or channel that has been
reserved by the dispatcher as a dynamically regrouped
mode for other users, an invalid tone sounds.
