NET call

If you want to send an ALE call from one station to other stations that are members of

the NET or have the NET programmed, make a NET call using the NET address

through the Emergency, Message, NET, Phone, Selective, or Send Position call type.

These stations have a common NET address. The member stations send an automatic

response to the calling station in a pre-determined response slot. The calling station

then completes the link establishment with all member stations. If a member station is

set up to not respond during its allocated response slot, it still enters the link.

NOTE: When you use a NET address syntax through the Selective call type,

the call icon changes to the NET call icon ( ) when the call is started.

The NET address syntax can be any combination of upper-case letters and numbers

up to 15 characters, however, for efficiency of NET calls, it is preferable that the

address be limited to 3 characters. To make a call using a NET, the NET must be

programmed in the transceiver and configured correctly.
