Selective pager and paging system
Group identification codes, names of parties to be sent, and telephone numbers of the pagers of the parties to be sent are stored in groups in memory 3 of a selective pager. At the time of transmission of a message, telephone numbers of a specified group and a message to be sent for the group are selected from the memory. The telephone numbers and the message are alternately sent to a DTMF signal generation section 8, which converts the telephone numbers and the message to DTMF signals. The DTMF signals are then converted into acoustic signals by means of a speaker 9 and are continually transmitted by way of a transmitter of a telephone set. As a result, a group call can be implemented without involving laborious operations, such as transmission of the telephone numbers and the message one by one.
