When you end a PTT broadcast, the channel remains open and enters a waiting

 

period. This waiting period gives people who received the broadcast a chance

 

to respond. If no one responds within the waiting period, the channel closes.

 

Sending PTT Broadcasts

 

Before you can send a PTT broadcast, you need to choose a channel to

 

broadcast on. Or, you can hold the Talk soft key to immediately begin

 

broadcasting on Channel 1, the default channel.

 

You can change your default channel to any channel you want (see Updating

 

the Default Channel on page 4-11). When you change the default channel,

 

you’re automatically subscribed to it.

 

To send a PTT broadcast:

 

1. Press the Talk soft key to select a channel to broadcast on.

Note

 

To automatically send a PTT broadcast on the default channel, press and hold the

 

Talk soft key, and then go to step 4.

 

 

 

2. From the PTT Channels List screen, select the channel to send the

 

broadcast on.

 

The list displays the default channel, the most recent channel you sent a

 

broadcast on, and other channels you can broadcast on.

 

3. To start the broadcast, press and hold the Talk soft key. Be sure to press

 

the Talk soft key throughout the entire broadcast.

 

You’ll hear a ‘transmitting’ beep, and the phone will display the channel

 

information, such as the channel label.

 

4. Begin speaking.

Note

 

If you release the Talk soft key while you’re sending the broadcast, the broadcast

 

temporarily stops and enters a 10 second waiting period. During this period, the

 

channel remains open to give people a chance to reply. At any time during the

 

waiting period, you can resume your broadcast by pressing and holding the

 

Talk soft key. If no one broadcasts during the waiting period, the channel closes

 

and the broadcast ends.

 

 

 

5. When you finish your broadcast, do one of the following:

 

Release the Talk soft key.

 

Press the End PTT soft key.

 

After you press the End PTT soft key, you can immediately initiate

 

another broadcast on another channel, even if the previous broadcast is

 

still in its waiting period.
