You're right about battery back up. Many units can even even draw power for the radio & PA straight off the main battery even when the unit is cut out.

But when they said the radio didn't work I suspect it wasn't a power supply problem

GSM-R has a long running connection issue. Sometimes when you call the signaller, you end up talking to a person on the wrong panel, or even on a different line. This has existed since its inception and seems no closer to being fixed.

At least with the old analogue Cab Secure Radio it showed on the display a 2 digit code so you knew which box/panel/workstation it was tuned to.
