Selcall (Selective Calling)
Selcall allows your radio to direct calls to certain
individuals or groups within a channel. If your radio is
fitted with Selcall hardware and this feature is
programmed, some or all of your channels will be
associated with other radio’s Selcall IDs.
Making a
Selcall
Follow the steps below to make a Selcall:
1 Select the channel that is programmed with the
Selcall ID you wish to call.
2 Check that the channel is free.
3 Press the Call () key.
4 When the person you are calling responds, lift the
microphone off-hook and proceed with your call as
normal.
Receiving a
Selcall
When you receive a Selcall, the radio emits a ringing
tone (similar to a telephone’s ring) and the CALL
indicator flashes.
• To accept the call, lift the microphone off-hook, identify
yourself and proceed with the call as usual. The
ringing tone stops as soon as you press the PTT key.
• To reject the call, press any of the front panel keys
instead of the PTT key.
Group Calls If your radio emits a single ringing tone and the caller
begins his message immediately, then you are one
recipient of a Selcall group call.
There is no need to respond - the message is being
sent as a broadcast to a group of radios.
