Walkie Talkie Transmissions
Organisations frequently rely upon walkie talkie messages to receive updates as to what is actually happening on the ground. Walkie talkie messages are typically one-to-one, and tend to use callsigns rather than names.
After the transmission has been received, a summary of the message will automatically appear in participants’ radio log for subsequent review.
