Making a talkgroup call
A talkgroup is a collection of radios on a trunking
system. Trunked talkgroups are found in the Channels
menu, along with conventional channels that may also
be available for the currently selected zone.
Depending on how your radio is programmed, you
may be able to press a function key, use your Quick
Access menu or use the channel selector to select a
trunked talkgroup.
Caution
In some situations, your call will not
proceed. For an explanation of the radio behavior, see
"Unconnected calls" on page 71
