46 3. Making and Answering Calls

Receiving All Calls on a Channel

You can set your phone to receive all Direct Talk
transmissions that are within range and set to the same
channel. Do this by selecting Receive All, instead of a
code.
You cannot initiate a call when the code is set to
Receive All. If you press the DC button to initiate a
Direct Connect call and your code is set to Receive All,
you receive an error message.
To set the code to Receive All:
1. In Direct Talk mode, press Edit (left softkey) >
Code > Receive All.
2. Press Back (right softkey) to return to the Direct Talk
standby screen.

Making Emergency Calls While in Direct

Talk Mode

If you attempt to make an emergency 911 call while in
Direct Talk mode, your phone automatically exits Direct
Talk mode and attempts to find a network signal.
If you are out of network coverage, your phone cannot
make an emergency 911 call until you return to a
network coverage area. You must wait until the phone
reconnects to a network before attempting to make an
emergency 911 call.
