Patent abstract

Methods and systems for merging active dispatch talk groups, which are supported on different call handlers, are provided. The merged talk group can be supported by a single dispatch call handler, or the different dispatch call handlers can support the merged talk group in a master/slave relationship. An identification of the merged talk group is stored for a predetermined amount of time, thereby allowing the merged talk group to be reactivated.
