    Two Talkaround also referred to as Directed Net provides interoperability in situations involving multiple radio users talking radio-to-radio through the same transmit while receiving radio frequency in the conventional form. Communications in this situation are firmly bound by the air boundary such that the same frequency is needed and the consequent transmissions are analog to analog or digital to digital but not digital to analog. Level Three is categorically referred to as Manual Aid. Channels under mutual aid provide first responder operability radios as well as interoperability between radios that fall within the same frequency band.
