Selective Call / Private Call

(Glossary)

HGDefinition.jpg

Allows radio-users to selectively call a radio or group of radios based on Radio IDs. Radio IDs can be selected for use in the radio's Call Hot Lists or entered directly by the radio-user. Selective Calls allow for dispatch / announcement type messages. Selective Calls are not intended to provide privacy, but to eliminate other users operating on the same channel from receiving unwanted traffic. The receiving radio responds with an alert-tone, and shows evidence of a call through the intelligent lighting feature and / or lighting the radio's call light.
