Talkgroup Calls
A Talkgroup is a predetermined group of Direct
Connect users, created by an account administrator.
Talkgroups can contain up to 100 members.
Difference Between Group Connect and
Talkgroup Calls

determines who can participate in the call. By contrast,
participation in a Talkgroup is determined by an
