6.6 Call Alert
The Call Alert™ feature allows pages to be sent and received. With SMARTNET/
SmartZone operation, either the Enhanced Private Conversation™ or Standard Private
Conversation mode may be programmed depending on the capabilities of the radio system.
With P25 Trunked operation, operation is similar to the enhanced mode.
