to end the call. (By default, when you end a Group
Connect call that you initiated, all other participants are dropped from the call. To change
this option, see Set Group Termination Options.)
Note: If you get an error message saying that your contact “is not reachable via Direct
Connect” or “this number is not DC capable,” please check to see that you have entered
or highlighted a valid Direct Connect number.
Note: Currently Sprint phones do not support Group Connect calls with Nextel and
PowerSource phones. This enhancement is planned for future implementation. If your
calls are not going through, please check to see whether your contact is using a Sprint
phone.
