Call All Available

This feature is useful for users with more than one or two
channels.

a message to all available radio users at once in a
temporary "super channel group", without having to change
through each channel individually. Call All Available is a
group call to all users available in different channels and

transmission can do so the same way they do when talking
on a standard group conversation (by pressing the PTT
button before talking).

radio) with the Top button programmed to Call All
Available. This employee is trying to check if anyone took
the backroom scanner. The employee presses the Top
button followed by the PTT button and asks "Does anybody
know who has the backroom scanner?". Anyone,
irrespective of their channel, who is not already part of
another conversation, will hear this call and can talk back to
the whole group of users (who are tied up in the super
channel group call) and provide the needed information.
