Cell Broadcast
These are general messages that your service provider broadcasts in numbered channels in a geographic area. The broadcasts can be news, weather, sports, travel, and more. Contact your service provider for a list of channels and the information they provide.
Note: Your Personal Communicator can receive broadcast messages only when it is in Standby mode.
While a cell broadcast message is scrolling across the screen, you can:
•Press !to stop and start the message.
•Press ª to remove the message.
Note: The function of the ! button changes while you are receiving a cell broadcast message. You must remove the message before ! returns to normal. When the message is complete, the beginning of the message remains displayed until you remove it, a new message arrives, or you leave the geographic area. From the Cell Broadcast submenu, select On to receive these messages, or Off to stop receiving them.
Note: Selecting Off deletes all stored cell broadcast messages.
