Transmitting AnyCalls

An AnyCall is a general broadcast which your radio uses to simultaneously establish
links with other stations. An AnyCall can also include a message.

Note

If so required, you can set your radio so that it cannot send
AnyCalls.

AnyCall is somewhat similar to AllCall, except that it requests responses from the
other stations and therefore it can be used to detect new stations. Another difference
is that you can also select the channel on which the AnyCall will be transmitted
(alternatively, you can let the radio select automatically the channel).

Note

When radios in other nets have their MultiNet feature enabled,
AnyCalls may also reach these radios. See details on page 11.

You can send three types of AnyCalls (see also description of addressing modes on
pages 6 to 11):

• General: the address sent by your radio is @@?. This is a simultaneous call

addressed to all the stations.

• Selective: you specify the last character of the address. This is a simultaneous

call addressed only to the stations whose names (addresses) end with a character
you specify.
