Making Calls ⅷ Talkgroup Calls allow two-way radio calling to up to 100 Nextel Talkgroup customers simultaneously (page 51). Note To learn more about the differences between Nextel Group Connect calls and Talkgroup calls, please see "Difference Between Group Connect and Talkgroup Calls" on page 51. ⅷ Nextel Direct Talk allows for two-way radio communication "off the network" between two or more phones equipped with this capability (page 53). Making and Answering Phone Calls Making Calls Placing a traditional wireless phone call from your i776 is as easy as making a call from any landline phone. 1. Make sure your phone is on. 2.
