C
to listen on the repeater input fre-
quency.
• While monitoring, “BUSY” blinks.
• While monitoring, the displayed frequency automatically changes
to the transceiver transmit frequency (repeater input frequency).
• When the other station’s signal can be directly received, move to
a non-repeater frequency and use simplex. (Duplex OFF)
• While monitoring, the Attenuator function is temporarily disabled
to receive a weak signal.
While monitoring
For your reference:
• If the Repeater tone frequency or the frequency offset is
changed, the tone or offset for the Auto Repeater function
is also changed.
• If the offset value will cause the transmit frequency to be
out of the band, “OFF” will appear on the display when
[PTT] is pushed, and transmit will be inhibited. (p. 51)
