Talk to a channel or group
To talk to a channel after you log in to the PTT service, press
the PTT key. A tone sounds, indicating that access is granted.
Continue to press and hold the PTT key the entire time you
are talking. When you finish talking, release the key.
If you try to respond to a channel by pressing the PTT key
while another member is talking,

the PTT key, wait for the other person to finish talking, and

When you are talking in a channel, the first person to press
