Directed Group Call - A second tone sounds to indicate that the path is complete and you should transmit your message. No ringing occurs and the other party does not answer first.

Receiving Other Multi-Net Special Calls
When a Unique ID call is received, a ringing tone sounds similar to when a telephone call is received. Unique ID calls are received regardless of which group is selected. All that is required is that a system programmed for that call must be selected. To respond to a unique ID call, you may need to manually select the unique ID group if it is not selected automatically or some other group is displayed when the PTT switch is pressed.
To receive and respond to a Directed Group call, the group programmed with the ID code being sent must be selected. This call is handled the same as the standard call described on page 20. No ringing occurs, and an incoming call is indicated when you hear the voice of the person placing the call.
