Narrative:

After pushback at slc, I was switching from interphone to #1 radio as my copilot was talking to ground control. The copilot informed me that ground had issued a new departure clearance. I had not switched radios in time to hear the clearance. The copilot had written that we were cleared via the slc 5 departure to intercept the 094 degree radial from slc VOR then intercept the 303 degree radial from myton VOR, myton flight plan route. I interpreted that to mean an intercept right after takeoff. The previous clearance was to fly the jazzz 1. I did not read the slc 5 as closely as I should have. We turned to intercept the slc 094 degree radial when we should have maintained a 340 degree heading. The WX was clear and we had no problem with the high terrain east of the airport. This second clearance came at a busy time. We were assigned runway 34R, but because of the construction causing a shortened runway we had to call back for runway 34L because of performance considerations.

Title: DURING PUSHBACK FO RECEIVES A NEW DEP CLRNC. PF WAS ON DIFFERENT RADIO AND DIDN'T HEAR THE NEW CLRNC. FO STATED THE CLRNC INCORRECTLY, NOT CHKED BY PF AND RESULTED IN A PLTDEV.

Narrative: AFTER PUSHBACK AT SLC, I WAS SWITCHING FROM INTERPHONE TO #1 RADIO AS MY COPLT WAS TALKING TO GND CTL. THE COPLT INFORMED ME THAT GND HAD ISSUED A NEW DEP CLRNC. I HAD NOT SWITCHED RADIOS IN TIME TO HEAR THE CLRNC. THE COPLT HAD WRITTEN THAT WE WERE CLRED VIA THE SLC 5 DEP TO INTERCEPT THE 094 DEG RADIAL FROM SLC VOR THEN INTERCEPT THE 303 DEG RADIAL FROM MYTON VOR, MYTON FLT PLAN RTE. I INTERPED THAT TO MEAN AN INTERCEPT RIGHT AFTER TKOF. THE PREVIOUS CLRNC WAS TO FLY THE JAZZZ 1. I DID NOT READ THE SLC 5 AS CLOSELY AS I SHOULD HAVE. WE TURNED TO INTERCEPT THE SLC 094 DEG RADIAL WHEN WE SHOULD HAVE MAINTAINED A 340 DEG HDG. THE WX WAS CLR AND WE HAD NO PROB WITH THE HIGH TERRAIN E OF THE ARPT. THIS SECOND CLRNC CAME AT A BUSY TIME. WE WERE ASSIGNED RWY 34R, BUT BECAUSE OF THE CONSTRUCTION CAUSING A SHORTENED RWY WE HAD TO CALL BACK FOR RWY 34L BECAUSE OF PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS.
