Example: P25 Aliases
---
In this example, we're going to attach P25 radio identifiers and talkgroups to the ABC Trucking aliases
created in the [first example](#example:-create-aliases-for-an-alias-list).
Individual P25 radios can call other P25 radios, or they can call a talkgroup and the call is placed
to all radios that belong to that talkgroup. P25 radio identifiers are up to six hexadecimal characters
long and P25 talkgroups are up to four hexadecimal characters long. In order for sdrtrunk to correctly
match radio identifiers and talkgroups, add leading zeros to talkgroups or radio identifiers to make
the value either four (talkgroup) or six (radio identifer) hexadecimal characters long.
In the first part of this example we're going to attach individual P25 radio identifiers to the four
ABC Truck aliases we created earlier.
1. Select the alias for **ABC Truck 1** in the alias table.
1. Click the **Audio/Identifier** tab in the alias editor.
1. Click the **New button** at the bottom of the alias editor and select **Talkgroup**.
1. Type A1234B in the talkgroup field.
1. Click the **Save** button.
1. The completed P25 alias identifier is shown in Figure 5 below.
Repeat these steps and add the following P25 radio identifiers to the remaining ABC Trucking aliases:
* ABC Truck 2: **A1234C**
* ABC Truck 10: **A12400**
* ABC Truck 11: **A12401**
![Figure 5: Adding a P25 Radio Identifier to ABC Truck 1 Alias](images/AliasExampleRadioIdentifier_V0.3.0.png)
**Figure 5:** Adding a P25 Radio Identifier to ABC Truck 1 Alias
Now that we have the P25 radio identifiers attached to the four ABC Truck aliases, let's setup two
P25 talkgroup aliases.
1. Select the alias for **ABC Trucking-Local** in the alias table.
1. Click the **Audio/Identifier** tab in the alias editor.
1. Click the **New button** at the bottom of the alias editor and select **Talkgroup**.
1. Type **0012** in the talkgroup field.
1. Click the **Save** button.
1. The completed P25 alias identifier is shown in Figure 6 below.
Repeat these steps to add a talkgroup to the **ABC Trucking-Buses** alias.
* ABC Trucking-Buses: **0013**
