This operating mode prevents stations with the same or lower priority from interrupting a page. The station that is in use is allowed to finish the page before another station can start paging the same zone.
When Filibuster mode is switched off, and the station trying to page has the same priority as the station that is currently paging, the page can be interrupted if the number of the interrupting station is lower. For example, if station #3 and station #2 have the same priority, and station #3 is making a page, station #2 will interrupt station #3, even if it is not finished.
