Walkie-Talkie calls
With Boost
TM
Walkie-Talkie calls, you
use your phone as a long-range, digital
walkie-talkie.
Every Walkie-Talkie number has 3
parts—an area ID, a network ID, and a
member ID—with an asterisk between
each of these parts. For example:
999*999*9999.
When you place a WT call, you must
enter the whole Walkie-Talkie number
including the asterisks.
Make Walkie-Talkie calls:
1 From the home screen enter the
Walkie-Talkie number you want to
call, or if you have stored contacts
with Walkie-Talkie numbers,
browse your contacts list.
2 Press and hold the WT button on
the side of your phone. Begin
talking after your phone emits a
chirping sound.
3 Release the WT button to listen.
A Boost Walkie-Talkie call ends
automatically if there is no activity on
the call for a few seconds.
