It would really help for you to tell us what model radio you are asking about. The answer is different for every model made.

It would also help a bunch to know what kind of ID you want to use.

Still not enough info. Is this over a trunked system? Digital or analog? MDC ID or other?

Considering 911351 isn't a valid MDC, it would be digital ID.

OP: It's called Astro Call List or Trunking Call List.

I knew that. Just trying to coax the OP to put enough info on the table so that someone could answer his question correctly.

ok guys sorry for all this confusion i was trying to figure out for a friend on our trunked radio system how his department could program there radios up. So they don't see number ids on the display screen of the radio instead they would see the alpha tag on the radio is self i.e. medic 3 or dispatch-1 i just need how to tell him were to put the radio id numbers such as 911351 please excuse my lack of knowledge on this issue

We have answered your question above. You need to go into ASTRO Call List or Trunking Call List within the CPS.

Don't forget, you will need a sys key for said operation...
