Talkgroup Calls

Using Predefined Talkgroups
A Talkgroup call is a Walkie-Talkie call to a
predetermined group that has been provisioned by
Nextel or an account administrator.
Groups can include up to 200 subscribers that are
in the same Walkie-Talkie network — that is,
subscribers that have the same Walkie-Talkie
network ID and are located in the home market.
(The network ID is the second set of numbers in a
Nextel Walkie-Talkie number. See "Dialing
Walkie-Talkie Numbers" on page 22 for more
information.)
Before you can make or receive Talkgroup calls, a
Talkgroup must be established. After the group is
established, you must join the Talkgroup.
Joining a Talkgroup

Talkgroups that have been set up for you if you
