PTT to a group of devices

When there are multiple handsets registered to the phone system, PTT
supports one-to-group calls. PTT supports a maximum of one-to-four calls
when two to five handsets are registered, and a maximum of one-to-three calls
when six or more handsets are registered. The first three or four registered
