Alright people, knock off the childsplay. The "call" channel refers to a
feature on the radio. Usually on 2 meters its 146.525 I think, and I cannot
remember 70cm. Anyway, once this particular frequency is programmed into the
"call channel" you are able to access it normally at the push of one button.
Most mfg., already have this programmed for the national calling frequency
for each band. Some people will meet up on a repeater and say, 'hey, lets go
simplex and meet up on the call channel.' then all's you have to do is hit
that one button, and your all set.
Good luck!

In general depending on the manufacturer, the call channel will open up
even
if you are on another memory. That allows your buddy to call you when you
are not monitoring the agreed on channel (the call channel)
