Section 2A: Making and Answering Calls
Making and Answering 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
In a Group Connect call, you or another caller determines who
can participate in the call. By contrast, participation in a
Talkgroup is determined by an administrator. Here are the
ways Group Connect and Talkgroup calls differ.
