Call Alerts
Sending a call alert lets the recipient know you
want to talk to him or her on a Private call.
When you send a call alert, the recipient’s phone
displays your name. The recipient’s phone emits a
series of beeps and the PTT button backlight
flashes slowly, or the phone vibrates.
The recipient can:
• Answer — begin a Private call with the sender
• Queue — store the call alert to the call alert
queue, which is a list of call alerts
• Clear — dismiss and delete the call alert
