Call Alerts
A Call Alert is a discreet method to notify recipients that you would like to talk
with them using Direct Connect. When you send an alert, the recipient will
receive a series of beeps and your name or Nextel Direct Connect Number will
appear on the recipient’s display. If the recipient is on a phone call or
transmitting data, you are notified with a return message indicating the user is
unavailable.
