6.10.2 Talk Groups

A talk group represents a set of users that regularly need to communicate with one another. There can be
any number of authorized users assigned to a talk group. Talk groups are established and organized by the
OpenSky network administrator. An OpenSky talk group is similar to a channel within a conventional FM
radio system.

6.11 ALERT TONES

The M7200 radio also provides audible Alert Tones or “beeps” to indicate the various operating conditions (see
Table 6-3).
