2From 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.

3To start the broadcast, press and hold Talk. Be sure to press Talk throughout the entire broadcast.

You’ll hear a ‘transmitting’ beep, and then the phone will display the channel information such as the channel label.

4Begin speaking.

Note: What Happens if I Release Talk During A Broadcast?

If you release Talk 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 Talk. If no one broadcasts during the waiting period, the channel closes and the broadcast ends.

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

○Release Talk. or

○Press End PTT.

After you press End PTT , you can immediately initiate another broadcast on another channel, even if the previous broadcast is still in its waiting period.

Receiving PTT Broadcasts

To receive a broadcast sent on a particular channel, you need to be subscribed to that channel. To subscribe to a channel, see Updating Channel Subscriptions.

How you receive a PTT broadcast depends on the broadcast priority, whether you’re in an active call, or if you’re allowed to receive broadcasts during active calls.

You’ll receive broadcasts on the channels you’re subscribed to as well as Channel 24 (the Priority channel) and Channel 25 (the Emergency channel). If you’ve enabled Do Not Disturb on your phone, you’ll only receive Emergency broadcasts. Non-emergency broadcasts won’t display or play on your phone.

When a broadcast ends, your phone emits an end of transmission beep and enters a 10 second waiting period. During this period, you can respond to the broadcast (see Replying to PTT Broadcasts).
