Group Call
Group Call
In a Group call, you can communicate instantly with a group of people that you
have previously set up as a Talkgroup. Your Nextel Sales Representative or
Nextel Customer Care must set up your Talkgroups by providing you with a
Talkgroup number for each Talkgroup. After you have the number, you can
assign each Talkgroup number a name and store it in your phone (see “Naming a
Talkgroup” on page 67).
Talkgroups appear on your display as numbers or programmed names such as
SALES TEAM or Talkgrp 5. Your phone can store up to 30 Talkgroups. You
can initiate or participate in Group calls for Talkgroups that have been created
for you and that are stored in your Phonebook.
