REPEATER AND DUPLEX OPERATIONS
8-2
A repeater receives signals and on one frequency, and
then retransmits them on a different frequency. When
using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted
from the receive frequency by a frequency offset.
A repeater can be accessed using the Duplex function
by setting the transceiver’s offset to the same value as
the repeater’s offset.
See Section 4 for details on accessing a D-STAR
repeater.
1. Push [V/M] several times until you enter the VFO
mode.
2. Push [BAND].
•Enters the Band Select mode.
3. Rotate [DIAL] to select the operating band.
4. Push [BAND] again.
•Returns to the frequency display.
5. Push [MODE] several times until you select the
FM mode.
6. Rotate [DIAL] to set the receive frequency
(Repeater output frequency).

TIP:
• When the Repeater tone frequency or the
frequency offset is changed, the tone or offset for
Auto Repeater function is also changed.
• If the offset value will cause the transmit frequency
to be out of the band, “OFF BAND” is displayed on
the display when [PTT] is pushed, and transmit will
