HF SSB transceiver user guide 6-9

Your address is sent automatically when you send an RDD

telcall. It identifies you as the caller. You will be billed for

the call. Your Telstra PIN protects you from other users

copying your address and sending unauthorised calls

chargeable to your account.

Before you can send an RDD telcall, you need to:

• set up your PIN and address provided by Telstra in a

selcall group with

RDD

as the selcall type (refer to the

HF SSB transceiver reference manual, Chapter 8, Selcall

address setup)

• assign this selcall group to the channels you use for RDD

telcalls (refer to the HF SSB transceiver reference

manual, Chapter 3, Channel creation and editing).

To send an RDD telcall, follow the procedure in Chapter 4,

Telcall, or the procedure in the Telstra publication Radphone

Direct Dial User Guide. Refer to the Telstra publication to

obtain the correct RDD selcall address to call and other user

information.

If your RDD telcall is unsuccessful, the Telstra station may

be busy with another call or the channel frequency may be

inappropriate for the time of day and range you are working.

Try calling again using another called address or channel

frequency.

Transmitting a Telstra selcall

(Radphone or Radphone selcall service)

When you register as a Radphone selcall user, Telstra

provides you with an address for you to use as your address

when sending Telstra selcalls. You need to set up this address

in your transceiver. Radphone service users operating on

selcall also need to set up an address with a code nominated

by the user—not Telstra.

Your address is sent automatically when you send a

Radphone selcall. It identifies you as the caller. You will be

billed for the call.
