Abstract
A method, system, and user device are provided for provisioned talkgroup identifier discovery in a dispatch or similar network, in which a user is provided with a list of talkgroups provisioned for the user device. In some embodiments a new request message sent from the user device is implemented to effect a response from the network providing the information. In other embodiments the provision of the information is provided by a new message automatically sent from the network to the user device at a specific time. In yet other embodiments, the user device attempts to join every group to test which groups are provisioned for it.
