Common Radio Features
Individual Calls
Individual calls are defined as follows:
•
Telephone Calls
— similar to standard telephone calls, except you use
your radio. These calls can be landline caller to radio, radio to landline
caller, or landline caller to radio talkgroup.
•
Private-Conversation™ II Calls
(Private Calls)
— one-on-one calls
involving two specific radios in which the conversation will not be heard
by others in the current radio talkgroup.
•
Enhanced Private-Conversation Calls
(Enhanced Private Calls) — same
as Private Conversation II calls except the radio automatically verifies that
the target radio is active on the system. The target-radio user can also view
the ID of the calling radio before answering.
•
Selective Calls
(Conventional Channels Only) — used to selectively call
an individual or group of radios. It is intended to provide privacy and to
eliminate the annoyance of you having to listen to conversations that are
of no interest to you.
•
Call-Alert™ Pages
— your radio functions like a pager (beeper); Call Alert
pages provide a means to signal other radio users that you wish to get in
touch with them (even if they are away from their radio or in a noisy
environment). Call Alert pages also allow you to verify that a radio is
active on the system.
In the following procedures, any reference to Private-
Conversation (Private Call) will represent both Private-
Conversation II calls and Enhanced Private-Conversation calls,
unless otherwise specified.
