2. To place a call, do one of the following:

Receiving a Group Call
When you receive an incoming Group call, you will hear a brief chirp-

the Talkgroup name displays.
1. Your phone must be idle, that is, not busy in an active call.
2. Wait for the caller to Þnish speaking, then press and hold the PTT
button. Begin speaking after you hear the chirp.
3. To listen, release the PTT button.
You can receive group calls only in the Talkgroups that you have
predeÞned. For more information, see ÒAdding or Storing a TalkgroupÓ
