Group Call

A Group Call consists of a service area and a talkgroup. Service areas are geographic areas of coverage for your radio. Your specific service areas are defined by your service provider. A talkgroup is an organization of radio users who communicate with each other.

In Group Calls, press and hold the PTT to talk and release it to listen. Upon pressing the PTT, you will hear one of the following alert tones:

A high, chirp-like tone indicates that you have permission to talk. Begin speaking after

the tone.

A low, continuous tone indicates that you cannot talk at this time. Wait a moment and

try again.

A busy-like tone indicates that the system is busy. Wait for a call-back (high, chirp-like)

tone, then try again.

A time-out timer limits the amount of time you can continuously talk. When the allotted time expires, you will hear a low-pitched cut-off tone.

Your unit may be pro- grammed with a courtesy tone. Upon releasing the PTT, a courtesy tone alerts listeners that you have completed your transmission.
