1. A method of determining a current transmission mode for a talk group comprising:
- registering a mobile station with a transmission capability;
affiliating the mobile station with a talk group; and
determining whether to alter a current transmission mode of the talk group based at least in part upon the transmission capability of the mobile station, a current transmission mode of the talk group, and a transmission capability of at least one Radio Frequency (RF) site associated with the talk group.

Abstract
A transmission capability of a mobile station that requests to be affiliated with a talk group is received. It is then determined whether to alter a current transmission mode of the talk group based at least in part upon the transmission capability of the mobile station, the current transmission mode of the talk group, and the transmission mode of one or more radio frequency (RF) sites associated with the talk group.

8. A method of conducting communications with a mobile station comprising:
-
conducting a first talk group communication with a mobile station, the first talk group communication being operated according to a first transmission mode; attempting to affiliate the mobile station with a second transmission mode capability to the talk group active in the talk group communication; allowing the first talk group communication to end; and conducting a second communication from the mobile station, the second talk group communication being operated according to the second transmission mode. - View Dependent Claims (9)

10. A device for determining the mode of operation of a talk group comprising:
-
an interface for receiving registration information comprising a transmission capability from a mobile station that requests to be affiliated with a talk group; and a controller coupled to the interface and programmed to selectively adjust a current transmission mode of the talk group based at least in part upon the transmission capability of the mobile station, and the current transmission mode of the talk group and a transmission mode of at least one Radio Frequency (RF) site associated with the talk group. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
