FleetSync is an Alphanumeric 2-way Paging Function, and is a protocol owned
by KENWOOD Corporation.  FleetSync enables a variety of paging functions on
your transceiver, some of which depend on dealer programming.

Your dealer can set up either FleetSync or FleetSync II on your transceiver.
Transceivers set up with FleetSync can communicate with other transceivers that
have been set up with FleetSync.  Likewise, transceivers set up with FleetSync II
can communicate with other transceivers set up with FleetSync II.  However,
transceivers set up with FleetSync cannot communicate with transceivers that
have been set up with FleetSync II and vice-versa.

A Selcall is a voice call to a particular station or to a group of stations.
