Broadcast Calls

A Broadcast Call is a call from an individual radio to every radio on the channel.
Broadcast Calls are used to make important announcements, that require your full attention. You
cannot respond to Broadcast Calls.
If you switch to a different channel while receiving the call, your radio stops receiving the Broadcast
Call. You cannot use any side button functions until the call ends.
To receive calls from or make calls to the group of users using broadcast call, your radio must be
configured to the broadcast call talkgroup by your dealer.
