Call Alert Paging

This feature allows your radio to work like a pager.
If other users are away from their radios or if they are unable to hear their radios, you can send them

Depending on how your radio is programmed, if there is no answer after the maximum ring time or
when you press the PTT button for an Enhanced Private Call, the radio automatically sends a call alert
page.
NOTE: This feature must be preprogrammed by a qualified radio technician.
