9.9 Making an Informative Group Call (Broadcast Group Call)
Broadcast Group Call can be used to engage in one-way informative group voice calls by initiating a call to a group in an
NXDN Trunking system.
The transceiver can initiate a call to the transceivers having the same Group ID by specifying the Group ID. The
transceiver can also initiate a call to all transceivers by specifying the Group ID for which "ALL" is configured.
The transceiver initiates a Broadcast Call upon the receipt of a PC command from the communication port.

For a Broadcast Group Call, the following functions used for a normal Group Call are available. (Refer to
