Abstract
An originator of a communication (110) selects from among a set of candidate displayable source indicators, which displayable source indicators can include both a unit ID and alias IDs, and then attempts to initiate a communication with a recipient communication unit (111). The attempt to initiate communication includes transmission of information, including the selected displayable source indicator. This allows a transmitting communication unit to most appropriately identify itself to a receiving communication unit.
